Khayr Posted September 3, 2004 Salaamz, I just want to pose this question to you nomads newbies and the old ones and all, When u meet someone new in life and they tell u their name, do u get flashbacks of someone else with the same name that u knew before and say if u had GOOD experiences with the previous person/friend, would that help u to accept them. E.g. U met Abdi Fattah at the store today and u had a best friend name abdi fattah before, so u think that u'll gel/get along with this homeboy too and etc. Personally, I really hold true to this that people with the same names usually have similiar traits/ahklaaq and yeah, I will back up a few steps with caution cause of a name if it reminds me of a Negative experiences.

Sincere Posted September 3, 2004 I dont believe that crap, but funny you brought this up. A relative of mine recently had a new addition to his family, and was contemplating what to name his new born son. He called my mom, and said he finally settled with the name Sadiq. The minute he mentioned that name my moms body language, and facial expresssion changed. She was like hell no, not in this lifetime will you name him sadiq. She went on to explain her reasons. She said I personaly know of 6 people named Sadiq who have had more than their fair share of ill-fate or who are institutionalized. 2 are serving hard time in federal pens for rape and assault, at least 3 she said have gone crazy in qurbo.I cant recall what the 6ths guy's story was . She said I pesonally know each and every one of them, and never in a million years would I have thought that this would happen to any one of them. I think it's all a coincidence, but it makes you wonder. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Salma Posted September 4, 2004 Well, that's remind me of my mom, she always says: All da people their names start with "N" are firey,fast,furious and fussy. For me, I don't feel that the person's name play a role in his/her personality.But somehow, all the guyz with name "Comar" are special and unique, I wonder why? ALso guyz with names "Xasan and Xussain" are good guyz. While girls with name Maha and Reem are pretty. Maybe its just a coincidence Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pucca Posted September 4, 2004 ^^^somehow after every response u make i'm either confused or annoyed...odd really.. back to the topic ...a name is not just a name...hmmm there was a hadith somewhere bout giving ur child a name that has a good meanin so it might reflect his or her character (ie namin ur child "satan"), oh well i dont remember the hadith word for word but it went along those lines,now about a name effectin ur looks...well now that i think of it all the zainab(s) i've seen have all been dark...not ugly, just dark.. oh and about half of the faduma's i've met have got major attitude ...and are quite fiesty ps..no offense to any zainab or faduma in here. ciao Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jacaylbaro Posted September 4, 2004 I don't think that is a good idea,,,,,,, somehow we can emagine but not 100% true. All i know is that everyone look like his name,,,, if someone is Faarah then u see he looks like his name,,,, thin about Geelle,,,Guuleed,,,, Ibrahim,,,, Caddow,,,, Muuse,,,, etc. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

silent-sistah Posted September 5, 2004 as if it aint enuff that we use countries, tribes, area codes, to seperate the same somali people - generalising and making propaganda against thos slightly different to us,,,,,,,now we using NAMES? aight.......... move over and let me in on the action....lol i agree with the sister that said somthing about the Hadith - choose a beautiful name for your child...name your child after a sahaba or even the Prophet(pbuh). however i have to disagree that a name makes a difference, though my subconcious says it does,,,im tryna think logic..on the spot...i had an X called mohamed, then i met a few mohameds, and hated them (ok hate is a strong word) i found similarites that i disliked, or maybe it was all in ma head...and the name just reminded me of my X, the guys didnt stand a chance..i dont know! but if names share the same traits...shouldnt Mohamed be like the Prophet(PBUH)? lets say, u met 1 abdikhadar in your life time, and u have a bad experience with him, every other abdikhadar that you hear about without meeting them will remind u of him.....if he drove a silver Golf with tinted windows,,,,every Golf car will remind u of him... its a bit like that Usher song - u remind of a girl.
