Hello Ndi Nkem!
As a sequel to last week’s post, here is the part two. What were some of your favorite names from the last post? Where there any that I missed that you came up with? Lastly, have you checked out my youtube channel?
I utilized the services of my sisters and my mother to come up with this list. My dears, we have so many Igbo names that have chi chi everywhere. We will say one name, then realize it has chi and start laughing. My sister said “what of Emeka?” My people is the full name of Emeka not Chukwuemeka? That was the sort of problem we kept running into. Anyways sha, here are some of the names that I could come up with
