Wat name "call somebody name out"?

[mountaingal]

Mi a read a story on media takeout that said amiri baraka call out some ooman name seven times and call her the b word, but when him did reach number 7 she clothed him. turns out she was a former mistress of the late bin laden, not that it necesarily has anything to do with her pugilistic prowess.

but what does it mean, "call her name out"? he said her name repeatedly?

MGee the term is calling outside her name or calling her out her name, in Ebonics it refers to calling you something other than the name on your birth certificate in a derogatory manner.

Like if instead of me saying &quot;Hey MGee&quot; I said &quot;hey dutty gyal&quot;

usually you her African Americans from the south use the term &quot;why you gotta be callin me outside my name/out my name&quot;

Tanya (former Tennessee-an ) is definitely right about what calling somebody out their name means.

However, I don't think I have ever heard &quot;clothed him&quot; unless it had a chapter and verse attached to it. Did they say &quot;clocked him&quot;?

I gotta say, it was the 'clothed him' that had me looking like this: But then I realized that MGee is prolly a new member of the tribe called Twang...

Re: Wat name &quot;call somebody name out&quot;?

somebody else had this question and here are a couple of responses from this website:

<span style="font-size: 14pt">
&quot;This goes back to slavery, I believe. A lot of times, the white people didn't want to bother with someone's name so they called them what they wanted to with disregard to the slave. For many years after, the former slaves and their descendents worked as servants for the white people and the practice of calling someone not their real name continued.&quot;


&quot;To 'call me out of my name' means you called me something other than my name - my proper name or my family name, and probably a bigger deal to Dr. Calloway - you shouldn't be calling her anything other than &quot;Dr. Calloway&quot; unless you are related to her or friends with her.&quot;

&quot;...it is the act of calling the person a bad name that means to &quot;call someone out of their name&quot;. And I've never heard a black man use the term (I swear) - only women that take offense to the point of someone needing to call the police. So if you called Joe an MF he might not care, but if you called Joann a B - you had better be ready to fight her.&quot;</span>
