Wow, very unusual. I hadn't heard of many of these before but I'm liking them a lot. Really like Amadou, Altair, Theron Amerigo, and Reima Elfleda (tho I prefer Elfrieda). The others are pretty neat too. (Have you heard of Amadou & Miriam? Very cool duo.)

Yeah, I love Amadou and Mariam. They're so cheerful and great, and they definitely inspire my use of the name.Amadou is a pretty popular name for men in West Africa. I can't really find a meaning for it other than one of the names of the Prophet Muhammad. Anyway, I like how it sounds and it honors a cool person, so that works for me.While we're on the tangent - more African names: http://www.africanholocaust.net/html_ah/africanmale_names.htm

I would assume that Amadou is a version of Amadeus, but that's not an educated guess... And thanks for the link, I'll definitely look at it.
