There last names were given to them by the whites. Most are given ndn names from a elder in the family. Such as named after a family member or some significant thing  that was seen  or done at the time.

A friend of mine met a guy and give him a fake name.  They dated for a couple months before she worked up the courage to tell him she'd lied to him about her name.  But since that's what he'd always called her, he still calls her that today and they've been married for almost 5 years!!  So unless you want to be called by another name for the rest of your life, you might want to go by your real name!!

It's a longstanding pattern of sexism in assigning labels.\n\nBachelor vs. Old Maid or Spinster\nMan about Town vs. Loose Woman\nGigolo vs. Ho\nPlayer or Stud vs. Easy, Sl*ut or Skank\n\n\nIT'S REVOLTING.  People should think about what they say, and the messages it sends to the people around them - especially their sisters, little brothers, girlfriends, wives, nieces, daughters, sons, etc.  when they hear you use these kinds of sexist terms.\n\nAnd why are Men referred to as 'Guys' while women are very often called 'Girls'  by men (as if we're still children)?  It's insidious sexism.

Yes!!! I've noticed that so many people have problems maintaining eye contact! I also met someone recently that was proud of the fact that they never bring up names in conversation, I personally don't think it's anything to be proud of. It's polite and curitious and engages people to use their name. Another problem I really don't like is when a person is talking about you right in front of you and they're speaking to the person their with instead of you. I think so many people's communications skills are so lacking these days.

Many reasons some being\nDifficult or unusual name - so a nickname is easier\nA private joke or secret message - between friends and partners\nTo keep your privacy - if people don't know your real name it keeps them at a distance\nHaving the same name as someone else - Nickname is then used to identify who you are talking about\n\nWhat it says about are relationships is in a partnership/marriage it is a shared code that brings you together, With friends it says you have been accepted and online it is all about creating a persona that keeps people from know who we really are

It is a tribal tradition in most tribes that they name you.\nJust a few make you earn it, from things you normally do.\nSome chiefs do the naming, or ok the name chosen for you.

I've heard "maneto" used as a nickname. It comes from "hermanito," meaning little brother, and people shorten it to make it more affectionate.

Doesn't it mean "call" in the sense of "say my name," though?

The reason why different groups of people claimed lands as their own and ultimately leading to the term 'country' is b/c humans, just like animals, are territorial... possessive. We want to be able to call something our own.

It's not so formal. It is in a more common language. It's one of those names that mothers call their children. Could you imagine a mother calling her 10 year old Charles?

No, not really. He probably figures if he's a guy and a d*ck is what guys have, then the d*ck should be a guy's name. But why would someone name their Penis!?!

It's probably their names and titles.

Maybe he doesn't care about the immaturity of those who would laugh or poke fun at his name?  Maybe he comes from an era when this word wasn't used to refer to male genitalia?\n\n(I am not implying that you are immature; this is a good question).
