Well she should be the one doing the finding out. I could have told you But I don't think its right doing so considering insecurity and all the bad things in naija.

So sorry let her ask herself.

I appreciate your point of view. There is no ill in find out the meaning of the name of someone you are in relationship with and you intend to marry. From the stock of Christianity I belong, it called due diligence. Certain things are attached to name, though it may sound superstitious. So if you know the meaning, I will appreciate your kind gesture. Tnx

@Illiad, I respect your point of view. Sincerely, there is no harm in checking out the meaning of your friend/fiancee native name. My Pastor calls it due diligence. I was hoping someone with an open mind can help me with the meaning of NZEGWU. I am Igbo, but I dont know the meaning. Incidentally, the people I have reached out to personally dont know the meaning either. Nze na Ozo is title and traditional institution while Nzegwu is a name and not a title. I will be grateful if you can be of help. Tnx
