OUR GIRLS' NAMING
Some of Cheptaab kooret names which am missing in Chitaab kooret girls naming.
1. Tamnai
2. Temko
3. Kapkarich
4. Teng'an
5. Chematui
6. Chebalyat.
7. Chemtinki.
8. Chelimo.
9. Koreny.
10. Cherirey/Cherirei
Our mothers have abandoned these names like plaque. Just asking, do we still have a girl between 1- to-20 yrears who is named after the above listed lady's names? I doubt.
Our mothers and ladies have reduced Cheptaab kooret names to only five;
1. Chebet.
2. Chepkwemoi.
3. Chemtai.
4. Chelang'at.
5. Cherotich.
Meet ten girls [between 10-20]years and kindly request them to do some introduction. ....Chebet,,, Chemtai [Chemu],,,,, Chepkwemoi [Chepkwe],,,, Chelang'at [Chela] ,,,, Cherotich [Chero] are the only names you will hear. These must be their fashion names.
Any community is respected and defined by its unique word-language, names and cultural practices?.. Our Sabaot community is on the run. Running from its uniqueness to casual. Kasebseebte kot mekaas leetut!
There's need to restore kotkotisyeetab leekok in order to renew and give birth to these unique and indigenous names which are getting extinct in our community.
Cheptaab kooret, Cheptaab iteet, Cheptaab tarkeet.
