Have you ever seen a non West African with names such as Sunday, Monday and Friday?
Even in West Africa it is mainly Nigerians, and perhaps Ghanaians and Cameroonians, that bear these week-day names.
Why aren't Caucasians bearing such names, seeing that they are, after all, English names?

Slave mentality.

^how so

Rgp92: Slave mentality.

But Nigerians in Nigeria were slaves to nobody. Even the Africans who were enslaved in America and Europe did not bear Sunday, Monday or Friday. Otherwise, we would have seen the vestiges of such names in the USA. In contrast, even up till today, Nigerian parents still give these names to their kids? Are those also slaves?

You guys talk without proper understanding. It may not have anything to do with slavery. Our ancestors had alway named children according to the names of days traditionally, days were named in honor of the gods and spirits, therefore giving a child the name of a day dedicated to god is also dedicating the child to such god, but here we are misrepresenting this tradition as slave mentality. Is it because the names are now translated to their english versions? would you have issues if the names retained their original language? Does your tradition cease simply because you have translated to another language?

At least in South America, the name Domingo (Sunday) is fairly common.
When we talk about slavery, we must not forget that the process was in hand ... that is, the slaves came to America (for example) were converted to Christianity and changed his African name for a Christian name (the name of a saint).
As far as I've studied, every day of the week has a meaning for Africans, in some cases, days of the week were four.
I do not think any parallels can be drawn between euroeos and Africans regarding est issue ...
The Europeans did not give nor give to the days of the week the same importance that Africans.
For Africans, it might seem ridiculous to meet a European named "Tuesday", but if we analyze the situation a bit, it can be so ridiculous how an African named John ...
I hope my opinion helps.
Hats off!

We were too lazy to name our babies so we named them after the day they were born. Just a thought
