People of the Coast of Temples give their children a well-chosen first name during the first sunbathing ceremony or name them after the birth hezala (month). The name is two-part and consists of an often nature-themed first name and a family name which is formed by adding ''nyy'' (son), ''muu'' (daughter), ''puu'' (child) or ''pupuu'' (grandchild) to the adult name of the parent or grandparent who is high in the social hierarchy. Great names are deserved for children with high class origins, and are often kept for a whole lifetime. High class owners may also name the children of their servants.
