Igbo names serve as a means of identification, inducting children into family, society, culture, and religion. Beyond these, names in Igbo culture express nature, power, blessings as well as prophesying into a child. For instance, a parent might name a child Azuka (confidence) to prophesy that this child in question grows to become confident.
Also, Igbo names can be derived from situations or circumstances that surround the birth of a child. Although in ancient times, Igbo names were derived from the ancient religious beliefs amidst other things, the Igbo people have recently adopted the use of names that depict their religious beliefs which is mostly Christianity. An instance is in the name Chukwudi (God exists).
The Igbo people dignify the naming of a child and celebrate it through a naming ceremony. Although this celebration is not celebrated by some individuals in modern Igbo land, some communities hold it dear. It also varies in different communities. The traditional ceremony is done after the birth of a child. A diviner is called upon to identify if the child is a reincarnation of an ancestor after which the family offers a sacrifice to bury the umbilical cord and shave the baby’s head. The ceremony takes place on the 7th, 8th, or 12 days after the child’s birth. Apart from those who practice the traditional ceremony, religion and denomination play vital roles in the name of a child. For instance, Catholic parents take their infant children for baptism and choose a name for the child. Although baptismal names are mostly in English, Hebrew, or names of other saints, Igbo names are equally allowed as long as they make reference to the divinity of God and do not drift or contradict one’s faith. Here are 100 Igbo names, their pronunciations, and their meanings.
