Nuni is a typical African Surname with the connotation, Prince of the Seas. The traditional Mende culture in Sierra Leone reserves this name for two meanings: Nuni is used to refer to the process used to prepare a Perl. A hard object produced within the soft tissues of a living shelled Mollusk or a Conulariid. Perls are formed inside the shell of certain mollusks as a defence mechanism against a potentially threatening irritant such as a parasite inside the shell, or an attack from outside that injures the mantle tissue. the pearl sack that is created seals off the irritation. Thus the Surname Nuni refers to the immune response that a Mollusk issues to the entry of irritants. The second traditional meaning of Nuni is a rare fish that has the metaphysical attributes of beauty, calmness, royalty, godliness, wealth, perfection and companionship. It is a beauty to have at home and most wealthy families buy them. This fish is know in almost all modern languages as the Goldfish. The Nuni Fish also has sister and brothers but all refer to marine spieces. Hence the Name Nuni shall always be use to refer to royal borns. People who through challenges form an immunity that produces a gem or valuable Pearl. Prince Nuni means Prince of Perls.
