safarigirl:
What kind of name is Churchill in this 2019? Some parents are just wicked.

If you must give your child a slave name in 2019, at least attach it to the period. Nobody born after 1990 should be bearing Churchill

Kaycee7:
What exactly is a slave name?

safarigirl:
English name is a slave name.

Kaycee7:
So Spanish, French, German, Russian, Chinese, Japanese and Arab names aren't?

safarigirl:
Basically, any nonnative name can be a slave name, but particularly English, because Nigeria was colonized by England and the English took the most slaves from here.

Japanese and Chinese were never part of the slave trade, neither were Russians. As far as Nigeria is concerned and the tansatlantic slave trade, slave name is any English name.

Kaycee7:
This just feels like some kinda inherited PTSD. Discriminating against names because of stuff that happened years ago. Not to mention kinda racist.
A slave name can only be given to a slave by a slave owner. As long as you or your parents choose a name, it can't be a slave name no matter where it's from.

safarigirl:
You sound triggered. You must have one of those slave names, some of you take it more personal the it should be. Fela sang about slave names too, not everything should be taken so personal.

My siblings have slave names, and they laugh when we call it that.

PS: English names over native names is worse, because that is a sign of low self esteem, zero pride in your culture and your history. Slavery of the mind. Better to have PTSD than to have low self esteem and slavery of the mind. How many Europeans give their kids African tribal names? But Africans want to be accepted by their white massas so bad, some of them embrace their slave names over their native names. Even some of the slave descendants have started discarding English names to go for more African names, but those in Africa seek the white man's validation heavily, and are enslaving themselves for it.

Kaycee7:
Why can't people just pick a name because they like it? Why do you feel anybody picking a foreign name has some sort of slave mentality? I personally feel people who are generally antagonistic towards white or foreign culture are the ones with the slave mentality. They still feel like slaves which is why they feel they have to prove that they aren't.
Fela sang about a lot of stuff. Not all of them were objectively right. He was just sharing his opinions and views like any other artist.
Thankfully, according to you, I don't have a slave name as my foreign name isn't English.

can we assume you are also mentally enslaved since you choose to communicate in the language of the white masters?
you choose to adopt their culture of western education?
why are you practicing an imported religion when your traditional gods are alive and well?
when you used to post on your DP, it was not traditional clothing you were wearing, but western clothing, not so?
is your hair plaited, or is it permed? do you wear makeup?
what are the traditional expectations for women ? are you conforming to them?
should you not have been married off by now and rearing children?
can we also assume you are doing every one of those things because you are desperate to be assimilated by the white man?

what you wrote comes off as some hardcore nation of Islam type racism

societies evolve and adopt different parts of other cultures. some can even call it appropriation.

safarigirl:
you are making a lot of false assumptions of my person on this write-up.

I am only using English because you would not understand me in my native language, the English man, will use a language natives understand when he leaves his own land, will he not? If you are in China, is it English you will speak?

You ought to come up with more intelligent arguments than these things you lot constantly regurgitate to justify your lack of self worth.

thelastorca:
i am perfectly comfortable in my self worth.
you are talking a game that you fail to follow through on.

if you are really into self worth, and not a poser, then you can reject the white man's culture in its entirety
you cannot be wearing western clothes, practicing a western religion, adopting western attitudes, taking western education, then condemning other people for taking on western names.

you can also reject big brother - a completely foreign construct with its origins in a book by a white man

that is hypocrisy

you want to go full african - rejection of 'mental slavery- then own it, do it completely instead of cherry picking and talking down on people who have a more realistic take on how society works

You cannot compare a name, which is a primary source of identity, to any of these things you have mentioned. No matter where you go, your name is your first means of identification. Your name can tell of your origin faster than anything else. Whether you speak your language or not, if you tell me, your name is Oghenekevwe, I already have an idea of your origin, if you tell me it is Kevin, I have no idea and for the duration of our engagement, I will be unaware of your origin. You have no true identity

You ought to come up with more intelligent arguments than these things you lot constantly regurgitate to justify your lack of self worth.

Kaycee7:
On the point of a name being a means of identification, that's more the work of your surname than your first names. My uncle gave some of his kids Yoruba, Edo, Ijaw & Erik names. Both he and his wife are Igbo. But you most likely can't identify my cousins as Igbo by their first names.

safarigirl:
there are people with both names being English, you know

Kaycee7:
I know that's why I said more the work of your surname, instead of specifically designating that task fully to the surname. Sometimes even the surnames won't help with identification.
