Anybody can answer Obi in Igbo land , the name cut across state lines.

As for Anambra ....names you cant find across the state include Achebe, Idigo, Obiesie, Okagbue, Izuora , Oseloka , Nwosa, Belosa, Okosa, Bosa, Chikelue, Oranyelu, Oraka, Oramelu, Oraeto, Igboanugo, Chikeluba ....generally , these would be some core Anambra names. Enugupikin Cc.

Also Names that starts with Onwu like Onwuagba, Onwuatuegwu, Ikebuonwu, onwuajuase...etc

Also Uba...Ubajiaka


Well the names are heavy and well condensed with meaning not just names.
