Abdul aswell. I hate the shortening of this name. If you're called Abdirahman or Abdulwahhab then just use the full version. Imagine people went around introducing as slave in English.

I hate that name is so cringe. Especially when ajnabis use that word to make somali boys a laughing stock "how do you know am an abdi" "abdi can't pass the ball" makes Somali boys look like utter dweebs
Abdi is an acronym for names like abdullahi, abdulkarim, abdulrahman etc. no one actually names their kid abdi
They used to in the past. For example Muuse Biixiβs full name is Muuse Biixi Cabdi which means that his awoowe was actually named Cabdi

@Shimbiris explain to me why Abdi is so popular in the Somali community?
Youβve corrected me before stating to me that Abdi is no away a slave name.
But if you look at the dictionary it is.
I remember you said is a short name for Abdullahi?
Youβve grown in the Arab community: so youβre the right candidate to correct me again on why we should still be using that name.

Yeah they are keyboard warriors scared to say it in real life, another reason why I hate ajnabis.
It irritates me I'm just scared if they have the confidence to mock somalis like this online they could gang up on an innocent somali in school.

my middle name is abdi...
Abdi is one of them names that was strictly used by Somalis until corny ajnabis got a hold of them
Add them to the many things ajnabis ruined it doesnβt even sound right anymore
Abdi means "My Servant/Slave". It is short for ABDULLAH which means "Servant/Slave of Allah". The one saying "My" in Abdi is assumed to be Allah, obviously. So yes, it is a religious name. Arabs have a similar name; Abdo which means "His Servant/Slave" with the same sort of connotation (His = Allah). Somalis didn't speak Arabic traditionally except for wadaads, merchants and some elites and it just caught on as a nickname/short of Abdullah. My grandfather had the name and people sometimes switched to just calling him Abdullah as that is assumed to be his "real" name even though on paper it was still "Abdi".

I like the name Abdi. I had a friend who is Somali. His name was Abdi.
Abdi is short name for Abdullah. Servant of Allah
Abdi is short name for Abdullah. Servant of Allah
The name was fine but non horners ruined the name and made it into an utter joke.

Abdi connected with one of the 99 names of Allah is great, but I hate that somalis shorten it to just Abdi. this is my time to say bring back traditional Somali names 
Warsame, Hanad, Rooble, Ayaanle, Raage Abshir, Xirsi, etc, are all beautiful names for a boy
