All around the world, סמבו (Sambo 
, Sambou 
, סמבו 
) is a common dominantly boy's, but seldom girly given name. The given name סמבו is habitual in Sub-Saharan Africa, particularly Gambia, where it is quite a common male name, Nigeria, where it is quite a common epicene name, and Mali, where it is quite a common principally male, but very seldom female name. Not in comparison with a country's population, it most frequently occurs in Sub-Saharan Africa, particularly Nigeria, Mali, and Senegal. More prevalently, סמבו is the last name as well as the forename.
