a favorite among the igbo community, other versions include zicora, ziteora. it is also unisex.

4. kamsiyochukwu - literally means 'As i have asked God'.
this name is mostly given when a mother has gotten her heart desire as the name implies.

6. Ndidiamaka- Patience is a virtue.
It sure is. a female-based name which clearly states the importance of patience in having a child.

Others include-
7. Chukwuebuka- God is mighty.

saintneo:

Chi-ukwu = big God. Because two vowels can't be together, the "i" is truncated ..... Chukwu



Ukwu has several meanings depending on the accents on the vowels.

Úkwù = waist (but for perverts it is both waist and buttocks of lady)
Úkwú = big/large
Ükwü = leg

Ükwü gï a, ö ga-ebu úkwù úkwú = This your leg, can it support a big waist.

ukwu sarambala

Mettal: God is with the crowd. The Zimbabwean version is a variant in their local language,don't know about it . One superstar boxer's name is Dereck Chisora. They are one name but different meanings.

Nice one,I was thinking about Del Boy aka Dereck Chisora when I quoted you.I bet you tried to adapt that Zimbabwean name,then gave it an Igbo meaning..chiso ora or chiso igwe..chiso crowd.. ...

jcmaiah: My Igbo name remains the sweetest Igbo name of all time... Chihurumnanya, but since I am male I changed it to Chukwuhurumnanya. In ancient Igbos a mans name don't start with Chi, rather Chukwu. A womans name can end with both chukwu or chi but cant start with it.
Example... Chima=female, chukwuma=male.
again some names that are 99% used by female has male users too.
Example... Chioma=female, Chukwuoma=male.
Chiamaka=female, Chukwuamaka=male.
Igbo name abuses are common in abia state and part of ebonyi. In abia u see a man bearing Chinyere or Chioma.

The biggest abuse from Abia or is it Imo is NGOZI for a man. I've met a couple of them. It's weird.

..its Abia especially....leave IMO out of it...
#Team Imo#

phadat:
is that the meaning of okwudili, tried asking around for the meaning and got lots of interpretation and I thought okwu in Igbo is word guess that name is confusing

Okwudili(chukwu) simply means let the issue (okwu) be for(dili) for God(Chukwu) . Okwu means speech, word or matter/issue depending on the context in which it was used.

It's Iheanyi not Ifeanyi,ndi etiti uzo.

DeeMain:

Okwudili means let this case/matter/quarrel/accusation/argument be left to God or let God settle this matter.

thanks for the clarification , more like what I was told

No Abia man can be named Ngozi,Ndi etiti uzo unu gegbu nmadu.

1. Calistus

2. Vitus

3. Paulinus

4. Cyracus

5. Ignatus

But d names u just mentioned are not 'Igbo' names

lepasharon: The name Amechi is not igbo right ?

It's Igbo name. I think d full pronunciation of that name is..'Onyemaechi' and It means..'Who knows tomorrow'. People that bear that name are also called..'Meche'

ephi123: Does any one know what the name Adadiora'nma means?

It's such a beautiful name but I've got no idea what it means. It's not as common as Adaobi, or Adanma.

Adadioramma means a daughter cherished by the people. Are u an Ibibio if i may ask?
