Silly thread.
No matter how cool your native name may be, it still weird outside Nigeria.
so what's your point?
Re: Do People Still GiveTheir Babies These Funny Names? by deandavid(m): 3:39pm On Jul 26, 2012
sofat: For ur information, these are good names- sule, short form of sulaiman, which is solomon in the bible. Lukman a precious name of a wise man in the quran called Enock in the bible. Yusuf and not yusufu, a prophet in the quran and Joseph in the bible... So make research b4 u post.
sowi to deviate, we have so much in common in the bible and koran, and why do u guys call us infidels?

People Are getting wiser with naming children now. They know that there is more to a NAME....

Sometimes it is not the names that are funny, it's the way people [i]"prononce"[/i]it.

What the hell is 'Alimo (for Halima)or Fatimo (for Fatima)

That just irks me angry angry

Of course there some names that not even pronouncing it with the best accents can't redeem it.

Bashira
Mukaila
Cletus

Have you noticed you rarely see people in high positions bearing these names. . .President Cletus or Honorable Mukaila or Chief Justice Bashira.

Hmmm, are parents already determining their kids future by giving them these ugly names?

Food for thought. cheesy
