How do you guys feel about Cadaanifying your resume by using a nickname.

[Emily]

What if I wrote it as Maxamed, they'll think it's exotic

That is still a foreign hard ass name

 

[Champion]

Your name is your heritage and using a nickname is disrespecting it. Unless you have a name that isn't truly Somali name, then go ahead.

 

[ForwardSweep]

That shit is fucked no matter what. Wallahi, when I was but a 7 year old boy I knew a Somali girl named Emily, and even at that age I knew that shit was fucked up. Don't go the way of the indhoyars.

Only do if your an entrepreneur in Sales.

Other wise, there’s no point.

If you own a business you can put Xaar on your business card.

 

[Blade1]

Lol no one can pronounce my name. No one. I feel fake when I make even easier for them to pronounce. Who knows the future.
I'd recommend you shorter you name but don't change it to an cadaan name. Imagine if a somali sees you and they introduce you to them as Mark.
I'd probably slap you ceebta

 

[Hawd19]

I knew this nigga when I was younger his name was spelled maxamed but he went by max

 

[YourBroMoe]

I let ppl call me Mo at work, but I ain't putting that in my resume, you need to have respect for yourself...

 

[Hawd19]

I knew this nigga when I was younger his name was spelled maxamed but he went by max

His surname was Adam too so job prospects look good for him

 

[Gojo Satoru]

My last name is adam so that's a pretty caadan sounding name. Should I use the name ava for jobs?

 

[Blue]

its impossible to cadaanify my name its too somali

 

[Basic]

Whites already cadaanify my name for me. Never knew it was so hard for them to pronounce Somali names ffs.

 

[Shaolin23]

I knew this nigga when I was younger his name was spelled maxamed but he went by max

That’s what I would’ve done rageedi

 

[Ras]

Won't they see your black ass when you come in for an interview?

Disrespecting the name your parents gave you just so you could pass the first door isn't worth it.

 

[MariaMaria]

both my first and second name are hard to pronounce somali names, no way around it

so I just roll with it but correcting people 24/7 can get annoying
