So many hilarious names, I've heard names like

Habarlo-lyo (I could only imagine he was a woman beater)

Oore lixco (swallowed a whole oore , is that a cow or camel?...I don't know!)

^^ Do you mean

 

Habarlo-lyo : Habro-laaye

Oore lixco : Awr-liqe

 

the last one is camel, the male one.

 

 

I know though someone called awr-liqe, and is related to me :D

The greatest nicknames of all are those of my granfathers

 

Migarayshan Buurhaad Libaax-Sankataabte Nageeye

 

Which roughly translates into The travel minister who jumped off a cliff, touched the lion's nose, and brought a peaceful settlement. :D

 

Waxa kale ee aad meesha ku haysaan waa iska been been.

lol nuune thanks for the correction, the trouble with these Nickname/ Naanaysyo threads you could be giving a whole lot away. Goes to prove Me's point in the Surname/lastname thread that nickname can be used to easily identify a whole family.

 

Nuune, I bet that name awr-liqe is very common.
