baby name collection

Yeah I do have a list. They’re all super unique and I’m not gonna share because I don’t want anyone to steal them. Ex: I remember the name Alina used to be so rare but now every 5 year old Somali girl is named that.

mm you're right
imo boy names are kinda limited though

CULTURE - Database of Somali names boys & girls

The other thread asking what we'd name our sons got me thinking about how original and pure Somali names are literally dying out as more and more new parents give their kids Arab names. What makes it worse is many don't name their kids Arabic names that have some relation to Islam like Maxamed...

Here's a list of Somali names for boys and girls

For a girl I'll pick Hodan after the singer Summer Hodan Walker , for a boy I'll name him Abiy it's a amazing name don't you think?
