Re: Names from Africa.
in reply to a message by JDill
Not clear if these are names in use by the entire population, or by a specific though unspecified age group.

I think that the younger generations of South Africans use these names more than the older generations. It did say that the names were used in 2014 in the forebears websites.
To be fair, not all of the younger generations in South Africa use these names. They just as often use the Biblical and other culture names.
Keep in mind that South Africa is very racially and linguistically diverse, and different names are used by different segments of the population. You probably wouldn't see a Zulu or Xhosa speaker naming their kid Charlize or an Afrikaans speaker naming their kid Mbali.
That's also correct. Not gonna lie.
