Levi Cooper

Connor Hernandez
Derives from the earlier word "niger" (pronounced the same way, though), which meant anyone with dark skin (not just negroid people). That one dates back to the 1500s.
The word in its modern usage though directly descends from the word "negars", used by the Dutch to describe the people transported by slave ships from Africa to Virginia. That's probably the earliest usage you're likely to find.

are you sure the name itself isn't just an exonym? i dunno what language Nigerians speak or what they call their own country, but apparently Nigeria's official language is english.. according to a google search. can't be bothered to look deeper than a google search results screen

'negro' is Spanish for black.
So blacks were called negro/negroes, and nigger is just a bastardization of that.
negers is the dutch version
nègre, négresse French
negro Italian.
In other words, the word just means 'blacks' and it is just as insulting as calling whites 'whites'.
Niggers are entitled bitches that need to stop whining about it.
James Gutierrez
yes it was named by whites
Nigeria didn't even exist as a country until Europeans created it
Julian Green
Joseph Cooper
nergro black in latin
fun fact the romans self did not say it that way but named the "slaves" on the region on the slave marked.
Like slaves form Judea, Albion,Cartago etc they did not talked about skin because that was viseble during the sale.
William Harris

It's originally from the term neger (English) which was a derogatory term for black people.

user, please do not use racist language in your opening post! Even if you have to quote it, make sure to change it to something like 'n word' or 'n****r' before posting.
Thank you!

negro is a nickname because "black person" is too long
after a while, people decided that they needed to be as demeaning as possible to their slaves, and started saying nigger
the word nigger stuck for a while, but it is now sadly loathed in the modern world
as such, the word negro, which is not intentionally racist, has been ascociated with nigger.
