You're right that it is used more frequently so I guess you can make a case for # 1 as well. Most people voted for 1 or 4 in a poll that I had seen on Twitter. The blue symbolizes the sky which looks more like # 4 imo.

# 3 looks like the bonnie blue flag

Somalia needs to adopt a new flag the symbolizes the Somali identity or culture and expresses a new era for the Somali nation
