Good you just admitted for not knowing Somali
I'm very happy with my Muslim name, Hussein. A name after the grandson of Rasolullah SAW.
People need to learn how to differentiate between Arab names and Islamic names. Most Somalis have Islamic names....not traditional Arab names like: Sami, Baseem, Nadir, and Maher...You'll never find Somali men with these names.
And when they do name their kids, traditional Arab names such as; Umar, Hamza, Hassan, Hussein (such as myself), they do it to honour the Sahaba and family of The Prophet (SAW), that had those names.
Educate yourselves, people.

I was joking, alhamdullillah
I was joking, my name is 100% Somali. I have to go back to my great grandfather for an Arabic name.
Why islamic names have to be prounouns arabic and sound arabic also i think there is somali islamic names
Soco bahOrod nagatag
Not necessarily: Turks turkified the name of the Prophet SAW as Mehmet....and West African Muslims have done the same such as Ahmadou, Mahamadou, Fatmatou (Fatima), and so on.
No Isniino or Idil or Hodan or Ladan?
You're an actual Xalima?
I've never heard of that name lol.
Somalis do the same. Maxamed, Maxamud, Axmad, Fadumo and so forth. And you're right, as far as I know, you never really see Somalis with plain Arabic names with no religious connotations like Maher or Bassem. In fact, those names always stood out to me as pretty foreign when growing up around Arabs.
It still arabic islamic name Why does it have to prounouns arabic and sound arabic inorder to be islamic names
It's super obscure and a ridiculous name by all accounts, to be fair. Naming someone after a day of the week. And it's too cutsie too. Like a kid's nickname, not something I could call a grown woman with a straight face.
The point is going well over your head. Ready my two previous comments carefully, and have hard think.
I read it those names all have tie to arabs culture before nabi mohamed became nabi his parents name him mohamed and nabi childs and sahabas
My question is why islamic names have to be prounouns arabic why why cant dont it prounouns somali
Making names turkified or somalified dont make somali islamic names but arab those names came from arab culture
because africans had no influence on europeans. the europeans who were influenced by arabs like the spanish to this day still have arabic names. at the end of the day whether you like ot or not, arabic had a strong influence on much of the world including somalia, thats not the issue. somali culture is just weak. no real written language, no literature, no arts, no media....if it fades away its not arabic influence its because its lackluster. most other cultures would use parts from other cultures to modernize their own while still retaining their own culture.
