I made a post a couple of days ago about Jamaican names and someone said that I should should list the pet names of Jamaicans and those would sound more like Jamaican names rather than their regular names.
What are your thoughts?
If you are reading this from another country other than Jamaica please share if any of these names are used in your country.
Do I need to also put the history behind each name?
Some of these are derived based on something that the person did, or physical features that they possess.
