100% urban myth. What must have happened is that their ancestors may have gotten influenced by Islam, and adopted some practices in their lives. Despite this the Muslims wouldn't have accepted them, and these Brahmins developed some cock and bull story of having contributed to the Islamic cause to gain acceptance. Not the first time Indians (esp of the region now in Pakistan) displayed wannabe behaviour.

Many sikh families in what is Pakistan right now regularly had muslim names. Men and women both. Mainly Persian.
