Wanafunzi huwapa walimu wao majina mbalimbali ya utani kipindi wawapo shuleni. Majina hayo hurejelea sifa tofauti tofauti zinazowahusu walimu hao ama moja kwa moja au si moja kwa moja. Je kuna sababu gani za utoaji wa majina hayo ya utani? Je ni vigezo gani hutumika katika kutoa majina hayo ya utani kwa walimu? Haya yalikuwa maswali yaliyohitaji kujibiwa na makala haya. Data za utafiti zimekusanywa kupitia hojaji zilizotumwa katika makundi 3 ya WhatsApp ya wanafunzi waliohitimu elimu ya sekondari katika shule ya Star, Nyasho, na Morogoro. Matokeo yanaonesha kuwa majina ya utani hutolewa kwa kuzingatia vigezo mbalimbali. Aidha, sababu zinazochochea utoaji wa majina hayo ni mahusiano mabaya kati ya walimu na wanafunzi, walimu kutofahamika majina kwa wanafunzi wao na tofauti za uzungumzaji.
