Help[Facts] Re: Jamaican names
in reply to a message by adrianf
Yes, but Indian is a nationality, and Hindi, English and Portuguese are languages and ethnicities. If the name comes from the Portuguese language, it is listed in the Portuguese list. If it is from the Hindi language, it goes on the Hindi list.
My cousin has a daughter named Malia. The name is used in an English speaking country, yet is listed here as Hawaiian, because that is the language the name is from. Names are listed by ethnicity of origin or where the form is from.
