Luggooyo Posted August 16, 2004 I was watching a game between two Brazilian teams, when all of a sudden my eyes caught this tall dark dude wearing a number 9 jersey, guess what? his name is Somalia!!! i.e. Wanderson Somalia.

Baashi Posted August 16, 2004 Wlc Mr. Luggooyo, Now why would a Brazilian call himself Somalia? Why not? People take all sorts of names: Fox, Wood, Paris, Tiger, Rice, etc. Perhaps he likes Somali chicks ...they are admired all over the black world :cool: .

Luggooyo Posted August 16, 2004 Bashi, I thought about that!!!!! but it's not a fiest name bro, it's a family name or last name, that's what surprised me. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nomen nescio Posted August 16, 2004 its only a name. i've seen people with last names like '' Copenhagen, Iceland, Columbus, " . it's just a coincidence that his last name is somalia Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Paragon Posted August 16, 2004 I have seen a woman called Jordan but this time I am glad its a man who is called Somalia. Worse things could happen, we don't want that with for our country's name, do we? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Viking Posted August 16, 2004 Luggoyyo, Welcome sxb, it's good to see you again. The link you posted 'could not be found', but I recognise the player (Wanderson de Paula Sabino Somalia) from his time at Feyenoord where he played for a couple of years. I know of a Somali family with females called Paris, Istanbul, Beirut, Berlin and Yurub (Europe). After all these years, I still find it peculiar.

Bachelor Posted August 16, 2004 I saw this guy playing few years ago and he was good player. I was wondering why he call himself Somalia? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mojam Posted August 17, 2004 Yeah this guy used to play for the F-side of Rotterdam the season before they won the UEFA cup. it's actually a Brazilian tradition that soccer stars go by a single name like a nick name. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rokko Posted August 17, 2004 I heard qoftoo somaliyadaa ka waashay back in the days. After they broke up magaceedaa u gooyey and all he remembered was that she was from Somalia so he called himself somalia. Source: Dariska iyo ciyaalka xaafada Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
