Coloow Posted June 18, 2003 OG-Girl, I guess the new rules do not apply to discussing somali names , do they? am I in trouble? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Coloow Posted June 18, 2003 Og-girl sister, feel free to comment on the names. I am sure the adminstrators are wise enough to differentiate between comments on somali names and profanities. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AYOUB Posted June 18, 2003 Bro you had all that to chose from and you went for Entebereneur or whatever it is !!! OG Girl be careful, some of the above names do have tribal connotations . Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nomen nescio Posted June 18, 2003 Originally posted by OG_Girl: but my comments would put me in trouble man. i would say some thing about the names u posted. see this is what i don't understand...this is a forum, and if the members cannot Post and Say whats on their mind THEN WHATS THE POINT OF HAVING THE FORUM TO BEGIN WITH ? O.G. Gurl has every right to post whats on her mind...but she's AFFRAID OF THE ADMIN Ladies and Gentlemen, whats wrong with this picture ? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Coloow Posted June 18, 2003 Ayoub-Sheikh sxb, I have to ask for permission from the adminstrators (double posting has been banned) to change my name to: Qowdhan-Fiidow-Jimcaale-waraabe because that combination describes me as a person> Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Curly Posted June 18, 2003 I swear one of those name look like coleslaw, why would you subject you poor child to something like that? Bisinka have you no heart?! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Coloow Posted June 18, 2003 Og, I am glad that you finally said what was on your mind....come on ..no one would target you for comments on a name. Anyway, There is a widespread assumption that having a muslim name would land you in heaven..but that is not true... so, honestly i don't understand why we should have arabic names....we could do like the bosnians, turks or even other arabs and try to use the somali version of arabic names... For instance Abdi becomes abdiyow, Ali =aliyoow, Maxamed=madeey etc. I hope you could be able to read somali, because behind those words is a great wisdom Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Xafsa Posted June 18, 2003 og girl--- the way I would translate that is that " The best of names is Ahmed(hamaadah) or abdi( plural 'cause there are alot of abdi...abdulaahi etc My arabic is horrible so where are all the native arabic speakers?

OG Moti Posted June 18, 2003 to my brother the one who posted, i have read the rules and regulations, having said i must say i will tell u few words hoping it will wisdom you and my other brothers and sisters, first of all those names that the sisters Flying & og-girl mentioned are not arabic names, they are muslim names, man u dont wana hear arabic names, let me give u examples and u judge urself: Arabic names: Haafi maashi jarbuuc Qunfus muriidi muqla cijlun candhuur and the list goes on .. those are arabic names Muslim names Abdalla Abdulmoti Abdiaziiz Mohamed Mujaahid see the differences Somali names some relyy ugly, even against human rights in some cases...like malaxoow murayad makiino muruqle mushaaari and i actually met people who carry such names and it wasnt a nick name.. so brother wht is the deal, are u trying to put us in trouble with the admin, cause i was about to mention names that might indicate tribalism even if i dont mean it.. so please dont lead to me to ban myself, without this site my dys would not be the same, cheers looool peace Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Coloow Posted June 18, 2003 Og-Mote Bro/Sis the word "ugly" is a relative word..depends on what you mean by ugly...To be honest I find the arabic names and to a certain extent the so called muslim names "very ugly" but that is my judgement. Og-Girl, Sister I wish you knew what those somali names really mean! I would try to post what each name means1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MD Posted June 18, 2003 I would pick arabic names over somali names, For some reason it sounds better and each name has a meaning behind it or a little history.. U forgot Gediid and Geedi i think both names are different Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Matkey Posted June 18, 2003 Enter, You forgot some of theee best names. Here they are: Shaarkey Akoko Bin Shaakir Gaduudow Cafiifi Shaash Karaama Jeylaani Muriida Aba Nuur Abati Canter Aliishow Ubeey Gariinle Eenow the last but not the least MATKEY Those were household names back in the day because of their talents in sport (calcio or football or as we used to call it Maqaar). My older brothers were sports fanatics, and used name or call themsleve those names. I have always liked playing in the midfield (centra champo) like Shaarkey. My brother had big poster of all these great players. I will try to remember the rest of them. Enter, help me out here... i can't remember most of them.

Coloow Posted June 18, 2003 Hijabified: Geedi..did I miss that name? Holly dameer! it is one of my favourite names (Traveller-qaxooti-nomad)! Matkey: bro , you have all the names except Sheekhalow! well done! ________________________________________ Shaarkey Akoko Bin Shaakir Gaduudow Cafiifi Shaash Karaama Jeylaani Muriida Aba Nuur Abati Canter Aliishow Ubeey Gariinle Eenow _________________________________________________ LOL this must have beeen MBC, Wagad, Jeenyo and muqdisho names not to mention horseed....But they are mostly nicknames: Enoow is on my list... I think sharkeey, Gaduudo(cadaaweor cadaw), Ubeey, Gariinle , shaash (ooh he was a famous football player..just like Roberto carlos)... But I would not pick Jeylani, muriidi, Canter, cafiifi and Bin shaakir because those are arabic names. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Matkey Posted June 18, 2003 you are right. Sheekhalow was one of the best. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
