"Shortly after the conquest of Granada in 1492 by the Catholic kings, their Muslim subjects in Spain became known derogatorily as Moriscos (little Moors), Moros, Muhammadans, Hagarans (bastards or decendants of Hagar), and Saracens, despite the fact that they were forced to accept the sacrament of baptism."
The above paragraph is from ISLAM AND THE WEST: THE MORISCOS by Anwar G. Chejne
