scar meaning in swahili
Swahili name meanings and other facts I was interested to find out what the Lion King names mean, I did after looking through books and the internet, I also found out some other cool facts. Simba means lion. Nala means gift. Sarabi mean mirage. Kopa (Simab's son in a book series) means heart. Rafiki means friend. Pumbaa means stunned or slow wittied. Shenzi means savage. Banzai means skulk or lurk. Kovu means scar. Zira means hate (Originaly she was going to be called Bianca!) Nuka means stink. Vitani was originally going to be called Shetani which means devil. All other names are real Swahili names. Rafiki's song 'Asante sana, squash banana, we we nuga, mi mi apana' means 'thank you very much, squash banana, your a baboon and i'm not'
