I should think Egobunta means 'money is less' important- that is when compared with a child |

ABA GWORO OGWU: Aba did juju. This is shortened to Abagworo Abagworo could also mean Gworo kola nut grown in Aba. Just like Gworo hausa. I may be wrong but correct me. |

Do your parents say Ibo or Igbo at your home?. Is it a crime for people to write Igbo?. IT IS IGBO AND NOT ibo. |

Hi there, The name Onyebuchi(who is God),what is the context behind that?I mean is it looking down on God? Please i'm really very curious, |
|
|
|
|
|
watchme (f)
|
Note that u can't translate some Igbo names exactly as it sounds;
Onyebuchi means "Who is like God" (This is a question that u will definitely answer "nobody" when someone asks u) and the short form is "Buchi".
Am sure u get it now.

I really loe Nigerian names especially igbo ones i've always said if I have children I'll give them African names Nigerian igbos and cameroonian names in particular cause I thinks they are so sweet. We french colonised countries used to give french names to our kids but the new generation is changing the trend!
My favourite igbo names
