NeduLuiZ: No i oppose that...(mother is "nne" not ''mma) ''mma'' can be head when saying mama fast, like mma instead mama ''mma" can be knife, beauty, depending on how u stressed (no "nm" in Igbo word) the word but here we are talking about beauty "chi' means God, ''di'' means is, while "mma" means beauty or good So my dear is CHIDIMMA not CHIDINMA Hope u are not from a home were parent don't speak their mother tongue their children, if an Igbo man |

TimeMod3: This is my born again moniker (cue Halleluyah chorus). I threw away the other one cos I was always getting into trouble. Most times, I just read and pass o! I don't know the Ogbanje that pushed me to comment. Lemme return to my 'pregnant women thread'. With all our raging hormones, we don't throw words around without caution. *waddling along* 3 Likes |

sedek4569: Chi is not God. God is Chukwu in Igbo. Chi is different from Chukwu. |

my name is mazi Godswill from Ikwuano...who ever that brought this topic knws nothing about igbo language he or she wrote the name following sound...no single act of confusion here but mere act of ignorance...nma in igbo means beauty...chi means God/god..mma in igbo means cutlass...God is beauty literally is chidinma but in normal meaning ...we mean God is good because beauty is God..since we cant say God is cutlass then the last one is wrong..real spelling ...CHIDINMA 1 Like |

NeduLuiZ: Chi does not mean God in Igbo language. There is difference between chi and Chukwu. Chukwu means God and not chi. |

Are Igbos confused or what? How can a tribe not come to conclusion the correct spelling of the name chidimma/chidinma.. Rubbish.. |

Re: Chidinma Or Chidimma? by DocAdray(f): 9:08pm On Oct 29, 2017 |
Klington: Knife/cutlass is still 'MMA' the same spelling as I mentioned above, but different intonations while pronouncing. Just like egg, bridge, wrapper are all spelt 'akwa' but with different intonations while pronouncing. |
Re: Chidinma Or Chidimma? by Obi1kenobi(m): 9:08pm On Oct 29, 2017 |
Weird thread. This is a simple function of dialect. There is no "correct spelling" of a name. This is like arguing which is the correct spelling: "Ebele" (my sister's name) or "Ebere" (the name of one of my best friends) which both mean the same thing. 1 Like |

It is chidimma not chidinma. My dear, you learnt Igbo language well in secondary school. I made A1 in Igbo in my SSCE and I can affirm most assuredly and even ready to bet my cert that you are correct. Q E D. |

mightyhazel: Everybody has a personal god which we refer to as guidance angle which is chi. Chukwu is God the creator. Chima and chukwuma are two different meanings. Good to know you know the difference because many igbos here have been making that mistake. Thumbs up man. |
