Even ignoring all the changes in names, 3 of their 4 surviving mothers are Ntsevu lionesses according to both Londolozi and MalaMala.

Because the name 'Ntsevu' was given to the breakaway pride that left the Kambula pride, and these boys were never part of that breakaway pride. They left the main pride (when it was still one group), and that pride has been given the 'Kambula' name. So, in my mind, it doesn't make sense to call them the Ntsevu males, and it's only Londolozi that does it.

But I'll admit it's not the end of the world for them to have two names. The N'waswitshaka males also have two names (Ndzenga males). It's just it can lead to confusion, and in my opinion is unnecessary. Reply
