Names in Igbo are symbolic in every sense…from the projection of aspirations, connotation of life’s wisdoms, to the marking of life events. The richness of these names are unquantifiable and continue to be a source of unbreakable cultural heritage and disposition(s) of Ndigbo. We have compiled a list of names and will update them as we go, asking our community to use the Contact Us form to send us names and their interpretation. Alternatively email info@ahamefula.com. Send us your audio pronunciations (*m4a file format) as well. Ya ga zie!
