becko! can somebody please tell me why our nigerian children are ashamed of their names ?
what is wrong with it ? is it because we are a little diffrent when it comes to pronouncation and spelling ., but what about the asians, the indians, the spanish and the french ,  most of the naija kids when asked " what is your name?" instead of saying Ugochukwu or Chimezie or Ijeoma they say bobby , chi-chi, or omy ,  WHAT IN THE WORLD ! Nwatakiri kedu ihe bu ahagi ! Gini bu aha nna gi ! Geesz ,  What is bobby ?! Mechae onu gi ! Going back to the main topic , , why do you think our nigerian kids are ashamed of their names? where do they get it from ?! is it their[parents' fault ? where is naija heading from this ? Im all about culture and tradition ,so when i hear this it really shames me ., what can be done about this though? what is it about our name that we can't stand up tall and say it with[i] PRIDE [/i] !

I can't speak for other people but for me and only me. I shorten my name because it is very long and when translated in Igbo is actually a sentence. When I introduce myself I say my full name what is means (which people always say is a beautiful name) and then give the shrotened version. Since I love the meaning of my name I get easily frustrated when people pronounce it wrong so as not to embarrass the person I shorten it. I don't tell Nigerians the shortened version of my name.

I have met Nigerians that completely change their name (eg. from Tamie to Jamie) or Chinasa to Diana. Maybe there are ashamed I don't know but am not.

Yeah but doesn't character mean that a woman keeps her virginity for marriage other than screwing around?
how do you feel on your honeymoon when there is no blood,I mean you would feel cheated right? if the men here are satisfied and comfortable with the knowledge of being with a woman who has previously slept with man yother guys that's you deceiving yourself.

Keep going around worshipping hymen. How is the woman supposed to feel when she finds out her husband screwed other women?

Consultant:
Sweetpie, you still need to explain to me why this does not apply to a man.

Thank you. I was going to say the same thing.

Hahahaha

Hey Prada Girl why don't you get a good paying job and stop waiting on a "boyfriend" to buy you possession you will be proud of? Have you bought him something he will be proud of or are you like and ambulance always crying mi waan mi waan

Hahaha!! Perversion indeed. The hymen worshippers. Interesting that some people want to go to heaven for sex. If they are all thrashing in heaven why not just go to Vegas or the Re Light district. Does Allah create new women just so that there is 72 virgins/terrorist or are girls that died during childbirth because they were married before their hips developed rehymenated?

I hope none of you ladies put that thing on your skin mind it burns of. Like someone said earlier there is absolutely no cream that can remove something deep into the skin. Laser maybe, cream no.
