Nnamdi (my father lives), Ifeatu (exemplary), Chijioke (God owns the share), Ifechukwude (what God has written), Ifeanyichukwu (nothing is impossible for God, Chukwudubem (Dubem in short - may God continue to guide me), Nnanna (father's father), Obiora (one with the heart of the people), Raluchukwu (leave 'everything' unto God), Ositadinma (may things be well from today), Kenechukwu (thank God), Okpala (son/first son), Afamefuna (may my name not vanish) etc.

These are common and good Anambra/Delta Igbo names.

What exactly do you people mean by Delta Igbo? What is that suppossed to mean? Is there Anambra Igbo, Imo Igbo etc? Why can't you find a good Igbo name and give the child? Probably one that glorifies God like chukwuemerie? Odikwa egwu oo. Igbo is Igbo anytime, Anyday.
Igbo is igbo but u'll also agree with me dat there ar different dialects in igbo language. it's a fact.

My God moves with me.

I and my God move together.

I am moving with God.


all meanings respectively.

The Igbo verb 'so' can mean:
following

or going alongside someone.



Another variation of the name can be Esomchukwu or Esomchi.

Chukwudebe (Chude)...God kept; Nnaemeka...God has done well; Beluolisa (Bosa)...My cry/prayer to God
What were the circumstances of the birth? What were your requests to God at the time?

Odenigbo, please could you explain "Ife sika ngo..."? The meaning isn't clear to me. I'm not sure I correctly interpreted each name on your list.

Ife sika ngo....In this context "ngo" means resilience while some people may have other definition. Anyhow,Ife sika ngo obulu Okodu nnem means....Nothing can be more resilient than my motherland of Okodu,Umuoji.

Why do you put an "r" at the end. It's Chiazo and Nwakaozo.

You also see a lot of people writing Dikeh instead of Dike. Okafor instead of Okafo. And a whole lot of other corrupted spellings

Right. Igbo words are unique in that they end in vowels only, except for a few words that end in the letter 'm' such as mahadum, odum, etc.
