Which Is The Most Common Name In Your Tribe? by Ndipe(op): 10:28pm On Jun 29, 2009
For an Ibibio man I think that Ubong (for males) and Enobong (for females) are two of the most popular names. But then it may be disputable.

What about your tribe?

Ubong means honor

Enobong means gift

Chukwuemeka (probably the most popular Igbo name)

Ifeanyichukwu/Iheanyichukwu (another cool Igbo name given mostly to males than females)

Ada... ( In almost every Igbo family, there’s one)

Chinedu (this one too is quite popular)

Chukwudi/Chidi (Quite common too)

Chinonso (I like this one)

Ogechi.

Ngozichukwu.

Uchechukwu/Uchenna.

I could go on...
