What kind of names are Abdiqani and Abdiwarsame

I added poll

My names not blatantly Muslim unless you’re educated in Islam. So it means people don’t really know I’m Muslim until they see that I’m Somali. So it’s helped me get job interviews .

Or maybe I would have got the interviews regardless but you never know.

This name is common among somali, oromo, amhara, tiger, tigrinya, afar et cetra. It was Also mentioned in king James bible. It looks to me is Jewish/ Christian name in origin.

 

[SOMALI GENERAL]

Even Persians use the name "Abdi" lol.

There was an Kosovan Abdi that played in the Premier League a few years back for some relegation team

 

[CaliTedesse]

Even a Moroccan I met had surname Abdi. Who cares waa fugly name in old times it had meaning. Seeing as they were jaahil and their offspring were also their servants(slaves). Now it doesnt.

Btw get this f*cking name out of the list

Also it could be just proto Somali name because the fact it's very common among rendille
