I'm a big fan of cool names, like gosh when I was in the university, I had a course mate and friend whose surname was Fowler. Like damn I always loved the name. When it comes to names, I really love cool names. Another dude was bearing Henry Lawanson.

But straight to the topic, why do people from Plateau State , Nigeria bear weird names? It might look funny to a stranger but boy I think those names are so cool. If I was to go back in time to my ancestors and naming ceremony, I'd love a name from Plateau State. They bear names like Luyong, gomel, xiyang, giang, botmang, lalong, gomel, gotep, walkit, dikop, kaneng, bature, kamshinen, nimdam, manzwet, rotdimwa, bongdul.
Any one called Boomerang?

Aww.. this sounds sweet. I'm sure the "v" will be silent so you now have something like "Wamdemi"

I guess that's where this musician, Jeremiah Gyang hails from.

Plateau no be Delta wet 'v' is silent. You must to pronounce am.

Sometimes I wish I can love one of them so my kids can bear their sweet names, those Jos people won't have problem when they travel to Asian countries, their name will be easy to pronounce.

You sound like an illiterate who is frustrated with life. Of all the comments on this peaceful thread, you're the only one who resulted to petty insults . Nobody here is the cause of your misfortune, nobody here is the reason your life is stagnant. Now leave this place and channel your frustrations elsewhere.

Their names sound like either Chinese or Korean. I think they migrated to Nigeria from either of the two countries
