Salam guys, I'm posting this question because I always wanted to know what my name means. I've asked my parents and they told me there is no meaning behind Idman, but one day a Somali lady told me that there is a meaning behind it, something about foundation I believe. The lady herself wasn't even sure, to be honest. I've searched the web and the most found out was that it means addiction in Arabic. So I thought I'd come on here and ask.
Does the name 'Idman' have a meaning behind it?

Gaw, are your parents even Somali? Ma sijuu baa?
Never heard of...
1. "waxaad ku idman tahay inaad bixisid 500 oo..."
Or..
2. "Waxay u idman yihiin adeega bulshada"
Or...
3. Idman: "Hooyo, can I have permission(idin) to go outside and play?"
Hooyo: "Haa, waad bixi kartaa...waad idman tahay(you're permitted)
Idman= Committed, indebted, obligated, permitted, ordered etc.
A girl named 'Idman" is usually the youngest or the only girl in a family of boys.
Another similar name is "Amran", for example:
"Waxaad ku amran tahay inaad bixisid 150$"
Amran: ordered, required, demanded
Amran can mean many things, but in this context it fits perfectly.
Both Idman and Amran are Arabic in origin:
Amr/أمر =order, command, decree etc.
Idin/إذن =permission, order, courtesy etc.
Tl;dr? Idman is basically a "servile" name. Nacalaa shaydaan ku yaalee, I'd rather die than be called a jaariyad, shaqaale or u-adeege. Your parents did you dirty but then again, in Somali culture, young girls are expected to be like that so...
