Do you think these names are appropriate for both family and baby?

So much goes into deciding on a name for an African baby. African names have profound meanings and they have to work with the family and the circumstances around which the baby is born. So I'm young and not married to My baby's dad.

Uyanda-girl [oo-yan-da] means increasing the family.

Leano-boy [li-yan-oh]

Means legacyDo you think these names are appropriate for both family and baby?
Don't really like them but try these African names:

Girls:

ABENA f Western African

Means "born on Tuesday" in Akan.



ABENI f Yoruba

Means "we asked for her, and behold, we got her" in Yoruba



AMARA f Igbo

means grace

EBELE f Igbo

Means "mercy, kindness" in Igbo.



FARAI m %26amp; f Southern African

Means "rejoice" in Shona.



KATO m Eastern African

Means "second of twins" in Luganda.



KAYIN m %26amp; f Yoruba

Means "celebrated child" in Yoruba

KWAME m Western African

Means "born on Saturday" in Akan. ( i know a guy with this name)



NIA (2) f Eastern African

Means "purpose" in Swahili.



SANAA f Eastern African

Means "art" in Swahili.



SAUDA f Eastern African

Means "dark complexion" in Swahili.



SUBIRA f Eastern African

Means "patience" in Swahili.



TAFARI m Eastern African

Possibly means "he who inspires awe" in Amharic..





You should look up the proper pronunciation :)
The important thing is how you feel about them and what you think.

Good luckDo you think these names are appropriate for both family and baby?
Very nice names :)Do you think these names are appropriate for both family and baby?
I like them...good luck hun!
African names:

Boys...

Ajani meaning He Who Wins the Struggle

Barack meaning blessed first black President

Ilo meaning bright sunshine

Girls

Femi meaning love me

Fola meaning honor/honour

Abeni meaning girl prayed for

    Name: Aden

    Gender: Boy

    Origin: Gaelic

    Meaning: Little fire

    Origin: English

    Form of: Aidan



    thats the closest I have
    It's Gaelic/Irish and means "little fire" - but in my world it means "overused."
    I'm pretty sure it means, "Firey". Also, it's Irish.



    My brother who is 6 years old is named Aiden.
    It's irish and means little fire or firey spirit.
    Aaden doesn't have a meaning -- would you really say this ODD-en, given the double A beginning? ;) -- but I realize some (Jon %26amp; Kate + 8 fans, perhaps? LOL) have used it as a random misspelling of Aidan, the proper Anglicization of Celtic Aodhan/Aedan.



    Properly-spelled, Aidan -- or older forms Aodhan and Aedan -- quite literally translate to "little fire" (from the "fire" root plus diminutive -an -- NOT -en -- suffix), and can carry the implied meaning "born of fire." It's also the name of a saint. ;)



    You can find more info on the very-accurate sites below. It's not linking them for some reason, however, so I've put simply the main page and you can search for Aidan, Aodhan or simply Aodh on the first, and just go to boy names A-C (it's the first entry) for the second.



    Hope that helps!
    You can also spell it as Aidan Which i think is a better way of spelling it.

    It Means ..



    The meaning of the name Aidan is Little Fire

    The origin of the name Aidan is Irish

    Alternate spellings include: Ayden

    It really depends exactly how you spell it. There are so many variations and usually they meanr more or less the same thing but apparently not this one! http://www.babynamesworld.com/ is really really good for names and name meanings.
