Oo ma wada dhulbahante baa?

If so, then no she hasnt heard of them.

Her mom is Hj/Black aden and is a stronger gene than Dhulbahante, hence she's clueless about your people :P

Back to the subject, i haven't heard of the Orfa for ages, especially sinds the older generation is dying out.

Xirsi is a typical Mj name.

I have noticed Warsame is one of the most popular name among somalis wheter they are from south or north. But, I totally have no idea if it's considered walaweyn name or northern.
