African Names
Three pages of common, popular, and traditional African baby girl and boy names together with a brief explanation of their meanings. In the west most people have a given name chosen by their parent(s) as their first name followed by their family name. Its different in Africa where there are many different forms of name. For example in Uganda a child will be given a chosen first name representing parental choice such as 'Akampa' meaning 'he who gives and receives' followed by an English type name. Neither name is connected with the mother or father. |
