What does Ceebla mean? i love Xirsi and Xidig too

If I remember correctly it’s like some who doesn’t have anything ceeb in their life, like they’re a wholesome person

Xirsi and Xidig would be great names for twins. After I made my comment I saw other names like Iftin and Filsan that are also really nice names

Samatar, Abshir, Guled, Mursal, Mahad etc

 

[Baarisiyomoos]
