Blogging in the Jungle. As you can see we now have the policy of naming the children with the same first letter as that of their mother, this wasn’t the case early on in the project so there are a few exceptions (for example Ruhara – Nick), and in some cases we’ve ended up with several families that share a name letter – see the Ks! But hopefully in general this makes it easier to follow the relationships through the community members. Core Group Females and their Children. Fred, Frank, Faida),. Please l...
