What name should Somaliland change to?

I saw someone on reddit mention it and kept seeing "East African" and "horn of african which I find ridiculous. It's unoriginal and I don't want to share the name with other EA nations like Kenya, etc. Why can't the government propose authentic traditional names? I wanted Adal but the names been taken and regardless the name is actually shared with Ethiopian history so not really a good idea. But as of now I can't really think of any new name. Any of my landers know of any unique name? Although I do know Faisal one of the candidates proposed for a new name so I do hope he actually wins the election
 
Why bother changing the whole Somali identity to alleviate your insecurities? I have a better plan, to ease your mind why don't you just excommunicate yourself from the Somali community by marrying an ajanabi so you and your kids don't have to worry about being connected to the cursed Somali people?

Yaaaa I'm garxajis from Sheekh...I'm siding with Xamar and the federal Republic of Somalia over a state that compromises just togdheer.

The false dream is over, qabiil qaran mu noqan karo. Reer lascanood, reer awdal, reer burco, reer ceerigabo have had enough of this fake Sland project.

Sland belongs to all Somalis, not just one qabiil.

How about you leave the Somali community and be adopted into another one.

Because changing your name is never going to change what you are. You can call a Lion by another name and it's still a Lion , a big ferocious feline.

Changing the name Somaliland name will never erase that you are Somali, nor the culture, language, religion etc that come with it and these ajanabis who's opinions and approvals you are obsessed with will never care to differentiate it.

Makes me remember back to when a non-Somali streamer had to carefully explain it:

Again this thread is for landers to come up with fun new ideas for a name. Please leave MY thread and mind your own business respectfully.
 
You guys should have taken Puntland but they beat you to the punch with that lol.

Naming yourself Adal or whatever is as much of a cringe worthy larp as North Macedonia naming itself after the ancient Greek kingdom. Why do you guys even do this? Even North Koreans don't delude themselves into thinking they aren't apart of Korea and in fact proudly consider themselves to be Korean.

Yh I wish Puntland was our name. It has the perfect ring to it. Adal I preferred but it's been taken by some ps game. No one is saying we aren't somali. Why do people insist this. In fact we are the true authentic somalis I just don't want us to have a our colonial name "somaliland" it sound like a theme park. Nothing wrong with getting a new name just like other countries when they breakaway

Who says they're not somali? only few lost ones. We're literally very much somali.
I have 0 family from Somalia but I only rep the Somali name to ajnabis, Djibouti is like ciise, just an identity that only concerns other Somalis. You man look Silly walahi.

I have yet to see a single ajnabi in my life who knows the diff between a Lander and Somalia

There's nothing wrong with a new name tho. Why would we want to keep a colonial name? just because we have a new name doesn't mean we're suddenly not somali. Why are non landers scared of this idea that we are going to ditch our somali identity. Is really weirdm
