Hi there I will add to the list of names:
Ngor (Serere )
Jogoy (Serere)
Mayekor (Serere)
Coumba (used by different ethnic groups; and means creativity in Swahili)
Jojo (wolof)
Nyanya (wolof)
Botor ( Fanafana )
Nogay (Wolof)
Houdja (wolof).
But,
I think that we've borrowed lot of names from the Arabs but we've add some
cultural originality by making them sound more Gambian or Senegalese (i.e
Seynabou meaning Zeynab ; Baboucar meaning Aboubakr and so on.
