Among North Africa’s indigenous people—spanning Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia, and beyond—Berber names (also known as Amazigh) mirror a proud, ancient heritage. They frequently highlight familial ties, natural landmarks, or revered ancestors. With tongues like Tamazight or Kabyle, these choices preserve an identity that predates Arab and European influences. Selecting a Berber baby name ties a child to the folklore of desert dunes and mountain enclaves that shaped millennia of resilience.
