My lions are now called:

Simba (in Swahili, not Disney)
Tau (in Setswana or Northern Sotho)
Shumba (in Shona)
Nkosi (in Kituba)
Inkalamo (in ChiBemba)
Imbube (in isiZulu)
Leeu (in Afrikaans)
Hamzah (in Arabic)
Kenya (only in Kenya!)

Because the names all mean the same thing I do not have to tell them apart except for Kenya who is the leader and has a ribbon [1]

[1] In fact he has a seal from a bottle of 1488 Whiskey Ale. So there. No, I have no idea why.

What brilliant names!

I love the Jabu and the Lion story (linked from Nkosi); thank you for sharing.
