It's of no use if your supposed Igbo name doesn't sound Igbo. We bear Igbo names to promote our language too.

don't you mean Ugomsinachiabia and Lotanna?
(Chi)Zimuzo is different....
In Nsukka, 'Ngwu' is our word for honor. Some others say 'ugwu' anyway. 'Ugomsinachiabia' probably means something different, perhaps 'my glory comes from my God'...Lotenna, Lotanna...dialectual differences.

Pardon me, but Delta Igbo sounds like a 'caricature' of Igbo...I don't mean to be rude but it just sounds so funny. Chirohem. -- Chilotem
Chishelim -- Chibuliem

Diversity really is beautyful!

Your name is what you call it, dude, not how Anambra people pronounce it. If my name were Iheanyi, and you called me 'Ifeanyi', I wouldn't hesitate to correct you...I have other examples of course but I believe I've made my point.
