I mulambya-ku-nyela, hi nyela ndleleni hi tshemba nkani. there seems to be a lack of originality in this surname. if we trace the history of shangana people, they descend 4rm the nguni people and in nguni there is no ngobeni. the other subsurnam for this is called ngobeza of which u dont evn find in nguni, bt it sounds closely to ngobese in nguni. the problem arose when our forefathers had to change or adjust their surnames coz they were no longer speaking zulu but shangaan. So they had 2 change these beautiful things n im mad bcoz these r not realy our original heritage. dankie. anyway with suggestion..!!? Added by: Rhulani Maverick NgobeniNgove Zitha! Mithaviya! Milambya! Muchaveni! ACTUALLY DIS IS NGOBESE..!!! DO YO HISTORY N RESEARCHThats Right: Ngobeni/Ngobese check history look at King Shaka Battle fields in KZN South Coast near Dumbe,louwsville you still find a town by that surname Ngobeni in honer of Ngobese/Ngobeni during battle fields. added by Themba Ngobenithe NGOBENI PEOPLE WERE KNOWN TO HAVE COME FROM THE CAVES hence the GOBA/MGODI (a cave) so when they say "Ngobeni"this translates to those from or of the caves. masiya yigobile thats because they left the caves and mingled with society, they were originally cave people.look at NGOBE ZITHA: as people of the caves they didnot trust outside people so when people approached them they would exclaim: "goban nansizitha (Ngobe Zitha)" which translates take refuge/hide here are the ENEMIES (IZITHA).I WOULDNT be surprised if NGOBESE and NGOBENI is the same thing as someone allready mentioned above as they are some similarities. actually NGOBENI is also said to be NGOBEZE/ZA. note that with Shangaan words sometimes a 's' is pronounce as a 'z': few e.gs GASA-GAZA, KHOZA-KHOSA, MABUZA-MABUSA, PHIKISA-PHIKIZA etc and others i might have forgotten.so yeah anything is possible, and yes the Mlambya thing is actually from Mlambo, its a 'river'. so when we really trace this with real respect to past history we will have to acknowledge the MLAMBO's/MYAMBO/MYAMBU's as our relatives.there you have it run go ask your parents (if they still remember or even care) and spread it out now!!NAZO!!By a Nguni-Shangaan man ↑ Show less
