The thing is Somalis need to come up with new names. We only have about 40 or so ethic Somali names and they are outdated.Itrah wrote:You have issues... they are just decent names. Arabic names sound even worse than Somali names with all those Zs & Khs.Euphoriia wrote:The only one that sounds decent in that list is guleed and even that's ugly.
One thing I've noticed with these new young parents.

I agreeItrah wrote:What's so ugly about Awale, Guleed, Samatar, Dalmar, Dirshe etc... sounds much better than shit Arabic names.Euphoriia wrote:What would you name them then?

I want my children to have Somali names. If I ever give them Arabic names it will be naming them after the Sahabah (Ali, Umar, Hamza, etc.)
But that would be about it. Somali names all the way

I love the name Garaad. I know it's a title but it can be used as a name, like Suldaan.

Re: One thing I've noticed with these new young parents.
Srsly euph have some pride. Somali names are far superior to random Arab names with nothing to do with islam. My fav names are somali. Especially the girls names. IDil=complete. Istaah il= worthy. Barwaqo = prosperity. Ismahan = ?? Sagal=morning star. Sabad= ??
Re: One thing I've noticed with these new young parents.
Ayanle is a classic name and pretty underrated.
