Origin:Nigerian
Meaning:Child of Afor
Nwafo is a masculine name that could encourage your little one to give their time and share their talents with others at every opportunity. This moniker is most likely a shortened form of Nwafor, a title devised by the Igbo people of southeastern Nigeria. In the Igbo language, Nwafor translates to "child of Afor" and is often given to children born on Afor, one of the four market days of the Igbo week. Though it has one less letter, Nwafo still shares this definition, celebrating a market day associated with stability, nourishment, and the riches of the Earth. Your Nwafo's "riches" will not be things that can be bought or bartered, but traits and tools they'll use to make a difference in the world.
