Coloow Posted June 17, 2003 Og girl and stpaul..... these are best names a somali woman could get in the old days, before we became obsessed with arabic names or city names like Barliin, Istanbul etc..or starling Malaika I am glad that your name has appeared on the list:) You hit the jackpot Run-away virgin...Fiido or Fiidaay =born during the evening. Fartuun is not a somali name. It comes from the Italian word Fartuno=luck bono fartuno signorina Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
