This is exceptional stupidity. We have gotten to the height of insensitivity totally and completely. I wish to ask those parents what they would have felt if their parents gave them such names. 'Dance' my God this is too much. Dance was my pick what was yours? |

God Answer Me in igbo is simply Chizaram. I think its Inferiority complex. Since most people believe in the superiority of Oyibo. Me, I can't give my children foreign names unless these foreigners start to give their children Igbo names. We have very wonderful Nigerian names I wonder why Nigerians don't value our things. |
