TIDDUKLA TADELSANT TAMAZIƔT DEG MARIKAN AMAZIGH CULTURAL ASSOCIATION IN AMERICA, INC. 442 Rte 206 N, Ste 163 Bedminster, NJ 07921 I S M A W E N I M A Z I Ɣ E N AMAZIGH NAMES – NOMS AMAZIGHS Compiled by Hsen Larbi 1 To the user: This list is by no means exhaustive, nor final. ACAA’s goal is to transcribe all of those lost names and provide them to anyone who is interested. It appears already that there is need for it, because many couples have already used it to pick names for their babies. Please, if you find any mistakes, or have any suggestions or do not agree with the given meanings, let us know by sending email to ACAA. The names are written using the modern Amazigh alphabet. The spelling tries to follow the most correct pronunciation. This notation is followed by that in usage on Amazigh-Net. (created due to keyboard and font limitations).
