Has anyone tried plugging Samir and Khodja into Twexus? Makes for a couple of interesting combinations. If you are familiar with Houston, you'll know right away what I'm referring to.

Did anyone have an answer for what Samir and Khodja references, milkncookies?

Sorry - thought I answered this last night but posted it to the wrong board.

The names Khodja and Samir are fairly common Islamic names.

The name Khodja is usually spelled Khadijah or Khadja or Khadijah and
not Khodja - Khodja is a Turkish spelling of the name. Samir is
pretty common in most Arab countries.

Now for your trivia lesson for the day :)
Khadijah was the name of the prophet Mohamed's first wife

Samir means "Entertaining companion"
