Xox ~w 💕 KANYE WEST AND HIS HOT WIFE, KIM K. WEST NAMED THEIR DAUGHTER NORTH WEST. AT FIRST I THOUGHT IT WAS THE WEIRDEST NAME IN EXISTENCE. AND THEN I REALIZE IT MEANT THAT THEIR DAUGHTER WAS UP THERE. YOU KNOW NORTH MEANS THE HIGHTEST POINT. SO I SEE WHY THEY NAMED THEIR DAUGHTER NORTH.
klassicalmuzik domingo is actually a pretty common name when it comes to latinos now that I think about it. We also have people named stuff like Usmail o Usnavy pronounced in Spanish obviously but it's really just US mail and US navy 😂 I also never really thought Jesus was a weird thing to name your kid, I have lots of family members named that so idk haha
I died when they said that. It's the most common name on earth and they think people can't even be named that? What rock are they living under? There are over a billion muslims in the world and there's a circle of like 10 names they mainly go by.
Lol. Did you see the episode of The Braxton's when Tamar was pregnant and Toni said, "You should let me name the baby." And Tamar said, "Toni, you named your son Denim and Diesal. I don't think so." Toni was like, least y'all don't like my names?" 😂
SETTING THE RECORD STRAIGHT....BARAKA means BLESSING In swahili. That's what the name Barack Obama came from. If you all know his dad is Kenyan= swahili= Baraka=Blessing= Barack.
Wow it means the same thing in somali too. Lol im somali and didnt notice, they said it strangely. But yes their name probably just means blessing and has nothing to do with obama.
+Anna Mae Keating no not the same, what she said is in swahili. It's like stool is an english word but in Swedish it's stol, doesn't mean it's from Sweden or even from England or America lol
I can't believe some people actually name their kids shir like apple. When was the last time you've heard of a successful CEO named Apple. Like these names will never be taken seriously. Your kids are not puppies, they're human beings damn..
As much as I personally like the ideas of giving kids unique names, the sad truth is that traditional "white-sounding" names will increase your child's chances at getting a job in the future. Reality sure sucks sometimes...
The facts speak for themselves. The REASON why you do not see any say black women and men in the private sector high paying jobs has to do with THEIR attitudes and skills. City jobs put quotas on themselves as far as race, ethnicity, and gender. That is why you see black people working for the city and other government jobs.
Jean Gray Where did you get this so called information from? There are Black Women and Men working in High paying jobs. Not as many as I would like but there are. You probably don't even know any Black people personally.
This is sooooo true I've always gone by my first name which is a Nigerian name and when I went looking for entry level jobs, I had to switch it to Brittany, my middle name
Most hood name I ever heard was La-a which is said (La-dash-a). wtf the mother actually yells at people when they don't know the - is supposed to be said. How in the world would anyone know that without getting warned? And I lived in the hood so I am up on hood names. This is the craziest I have ever heard.
I mean my names Victoria and literally never been made fun of bc of my name . I get s lot if you have a beautiful /classy name comments even when I was a teen
Any name can be beautiful, but try making the name about the kid & not about you. "John & I met in china so we are going to name her china" I mean what does that have to do with her future. Give your child a name that A) is respectable B) Beautiful... Not a direction, color, type of fruit, city destination.. A name should be more than something that "sounds cute".. It will be that persons legacy.
Totally agree. I hate my ghetto sounding name because everyone mispronounced it. I personally would want to name my child something beautiful & unique. But you also need to take in consideration teasing at school a names like Blue & North will continously be teased. There is such that as a thing that shouldn't be a name
Tamera does not know swahili or arabic so lets forgive her. Also #LeiLeiA Please don't be mean to the boy. He is just a kid and its true there are some weird names ..... we do admit.
People always assume that if kids are born to famous parents that they will never have to get a regular job. The truth is, you don't know what can happen. Having famous parents and them giving you a crazy name does not mean you are going to automatically make it big in Hollywood, it can actually make things worse or even harder. For example, Nicolas Cage's real last name is Coppola, he is the nephew of the director Francis Ford Coppola. Cage is Nicolas's middle name, so he goes by that so that people in Hollywood are not thinking he is using the Coppola name to get by. Demi Moore and Bruce Willis have a daughter name Rumer Willis, has done a few movies but even having two parents that were huge stars of the 80's does not automatically make her a big star too. I think it even works against her.
I love the topic of "hood" names. I am completely in LOVE with my name. My name doesn't mean anything it is actually made up. I've never had a problem with teasing or getting a job, in fact when I do go for an interview I'm complimented on its uniqueness. As far as names, let people name their children whatever they want to name them. Not everyone wants to give their child a simple name such as John, Sue, or Logan!!! My name fits me and my personality. Oh and for those who are wondering (because I know you are) I am a jr in nursing school, I've never stripped, been arrested, or any other stereotypical thing associated with "hood names."
I had a friend in high school named Stormy. Her mother remarried and her stepdad adopted my friend and took on his last name Knight. I thought her name was beautiful, Stormy Knight 😊
I love that you cleared this up, I think they are talking about names like "Bonequesha, and Laquifa" Names like those are in my opinion really rediculous and I feel like the parents weren't thinking about their children when they give them names like that.
I'm African and when I hear western names like : Bush, Forest,Fish,Gunn, Brown,Violet,Green Blue,Black,White,Gutters, Banks,waters,Timber, grass,etc I go like what? ???
North is a lovely name, my son goes to school with two kids named Wolf , sibley, Lavender, lilac , Kirby, Eevee , Asia, Malaysia, and I love how they are unique 🤣
y'all need to expand your knowledge (no shade) but some of the strangest names have big meanings. I'm not saying sharquisha has a meaning but names that sound someone what ethnic like Barack or Baracka have bigger meanings. some of them come from the Bible or the Quran
ADayInTheLifeOfLayla still dumb.job is a biblical name to but can we admit if you meet a job or a Jedediah or any other old school bible name you're going to think oh god this person is gonna be a country Jesus freak. Names go through transitions were they no longer illicit good feeling or ideas
Black people in America don't really know our roots. Example: Irish people can go back and name their child an old family name because they know their history and lineage. Black Americans generally don't, so some resorted to making up names that sound "unique"...my name ends in "-esha" and I would never name my child one of these made up names. We are judged based on our names and it's not fair. But that's life.
I don't think there is anything wrong with giving your child special names. However, those names should be dignified and beautiful. I have met people who named their children names that sound like diseases. You never know who your child will be. Sometimes your name really can hurt you in regards to what you want to do with your life. A name that is appropriate for the entertainment industry many not necessarily be appropriate for an accountant. So, I think its great that parents want to give their children significant names, but they should also consider how that name could affect who they may become.

Baraka is a swahili African name,which means blessings!

skatebey mimi Yeah its both. The Swahilli language has its origins in Arabic so naturally some words will be the same.
It's both Swahili is 40% Arabic as well as Bantu and Portuguese
carolle shiks It's arabic. But it also made me think of mortal kombat. lol
In swahili Baraka means Blessings. Swahili as a language is a combination of Arabic and Bantu.....just making it clear.
