Igbo Kwenu! Asusu Igbo amaka!
The Igbo people are a majority tribe from the southeastern part of Nigeria. At times, before naming our boy child we all put the events/circumstances surrounding the child’s birth into consideration before naming him. As the Igbo’s are also deeply religious, most Igbo names have a Chi (God) connotation.
There are several different Igbo names for boys that all have the same meaning. Take, for example, a traditional name such as Chinedu has its recent versions as Chidumaga and Chidumeje, but they all mean the same thing!
Nowadays every family and parent are now sceptics to use anyhow baby names because the majority of us want to choose meaningful and special names for our boys because it boosts their self-esteem and restores Glory to the family.
