I would be so ecstatic if this was implemented in Somalia.

I will name my children Muse and Haroon. Those are some beautiful Hebrew Israelite names.
If they don't allow that, then I will call them Tutankhamun (Tut for short) and Akhenaten. Beautiful Hotep names.

BTW, Akhenaten was Muslim, but they don't know that.:siilaanyolaugh:

Most Somali names sounds like trash tbh....we need new names

If it was implemented in somali 80% of the population will be without names

we are not arabs though. I know that we have extensive arab ties and history. Are we honorary arabs then? No! The way i see it is that we tread behind arabs like some beta . taking on their culture and their names. you can still be a good muslim and celebrate your culture.

 

[Jeesto]

I swore a long time ago that there will be no arab names in my future family. They all gonna have authentic somali names such as
Carte(Arte)
Cawaale
Liibaan

Hodan
Ayaan
Sagal

Bit extreme
Names like Frank and John aren't even of English origin, but they're considered as much as a part of that nation's history as a native name
Like @government said these names have been present in Somalia for well over a thousand years, they're a part of our culture at this point.
