I know when my mum is pissed off at me .. when she calls for me she ends my name with an O instead of A. I didn't know Cambaro was an Arab name, always assumed it was a traditional Somali name.

Cambaro comes from cambar, a sweet smelling substance which is used in perfumery.

Yeaaaaa Awesome. I wanted to make this thread. I want to name my kids indigenous Somali names. Everyone in my family has Arabic names.

Haweeya, Axlaam, (is it too fanciful to name my daughter Bilqiis?

Even though I think it's arabic, It's a wonderful name), Deqa, Hodan, Ikraan, Ismahaan (arabic?), Luul...

I quite like Jimcaale. Nonetheless Abdullah is the greatest name followed by Mohammed.

All in red are arab names. Chances are if it has a x, kh or cayn sound it's an arab name.
