Do Maldivians marry based on the first letter of their names matching?

I know this is probably a strange question
But I noticed in my family especially from my father’s side all his 3 siblings married someone with the same first letter in their names which was the letter “S”
My father himself married my mother who’s name also starts with the letter “S”

All of my siblings have names beginning with the letter “S”. One of my aunts also did a similar thing naming all 2 of her children a name that begins with the letter “S”. Though my other aunt that has kids named all 2 of them with the letter “L” despite her and her husband having the letter “S” in their name.

Same thing from my mother’s side as well as atleast 3 out of 5 married someone with a similar starting letter in their names

Which makes me wonder if this is some sort of tradition or coincidence. I wonder if you have similar situation in you’re families

What does Dhon Manik mean?

I was walking out of the mosque when a random old dude looked at me, chuckles and called me “Dhon Manik”, I just smiled and nodded
Does it have some kind of meaning? Why did he call me that? 🤔

Do I need my Islam and Dhivehi from Alevels

I just doubt I would ever pass either of these subjects, so I have been thinking to just focus all my effort on my stream subjects instead.

Public service announcement to self cut you’re hair

Most barbers I have been to here suck

Which is why I decided to start cutting my own hair

And dude it is not that hard, today was my first self cut and even though I did not get exactly what I wanted, it is a lot better then my usual cuts I get from barbers, plus I think I would improve overtime

However I am not sure about tapers or fades, as I prefer scissor cuts, those 2 would likely be harder

Anyone been through the import process of any sort of vehicle in Maldives

Motorcycles? Cars? Boats? Anything

I am curious to know how the process actually is

Also the difference depending on the type of vehicle or whether they are electric because from what I heard it’s a lot easier and cheaper to import fully electric vehicles

The strait of hulhumale phase 2 bridge is now safe for human passage 🥳

Normal current is back. The waters have cleared up and a lot of trash seems to be going back to the Wamco site where it belongs 😁
