Additional Notes
A typical nickname for Siman is 'Sima'. In Somali, 'Sima' is an imperative command meaning 'straighten it!' or 'make it symmetrical!' This creates a delightful linguistic irony: the common shortening of a name that means 'perfectly proportioned' is an instruction to correct or adjust. This contrast highlights the subtle charm and witty Somali wordplay inherent in the name.
