Somadina is not a common Igbo name. only Regina Daniels ex bears it. Chikamso and Ogugua are not common too. It's Ikenna,not Okenna

No, it's not... You Nigerians need to stop with this mentality of always assuming that every black South African is Zulu.

Ask which language is it instead of always assuming that Zulu is the only SA indigenous language.

How would you feel if we South Africans always assumed that Nigeria only consisted of Igbo as an indigenous language simply because it's the most popular tribe to come out of Nigeria?

Nkosa and Zulu language is similar but only Pronunciation of Q and C is much stronger with the Kosa.

Re: Which Is The Most Common Name In Your Tribe? by Nobody: 5:28pm On Sep 07, 2023

That's not true.

It means horse in Sepedi, not Xhosa.

In Xhosa it's called ihashe.

Pere means King in Our dialect, one SA girl told me that it means "Horse" in xhosa language.

Re: Which Is The Most Common Name In Your Tribe? by Nobody: 5:35pm On Sep 07, 2023

Oh! Okay.

But don't assume that SA only consists of Zulus and Xhosas.

The SA girl said it's Xhosa and that's her tribe.
So our "Wealthy King" means "Horse" in your dialect?
Any way, good to know.
