What do you think is the most famous masculine and feminine name in your ethnic group. Or other ethnic group if you may.

Well I'm Igbo so I think
Emeka for males
Chioma or Chidinma for female.

Then if I am permitted for Yorubas I think Femi and Funke.

Whilst Hausa I am guessing Musa.

Adekunle, adewale, femi and segun for males, Sade, Nike, Lola and kemi, toyin and bola for females

Ene means Antelope in Igbo
Mother = Nne (I guess there's a bit relationship between Idoma and Igbo; their language and culture is unnoticeably similar.

Ehn....Antelope ke...Very funny oo��
Yes 'Ene' and 'Nne' sound alike kinda...

Naaa Emeka is by farrr the most common Igbo name.
Followed by Ebuka then maybe Ifeanyi. Obi is not as common. Dede is more like a hailing name used mostly in imo/Abia state. Nobody else uses Dede outside those places.
You're grounded. Spot on!!!
