Help with unique african american girls and boys names?

I am 18 weeks pregnant and I am having a hard time with names so I would appreciate the help.

Help with unique african american girls and boys names?
Whatever name you choose, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE consider you childs future and the ability or inbility to become gainfully employed based on the "perceived" ethnicity of a name. Don't choose a name like Moesha, Porsche, Keisha, Jordan, Dante', Marcus, DeAndre. Choose an "ethnic-free" name like Taylor or Raine or Aeriel, Conner, Cameron, Carter, Tyler or something like that so that your child can have a chance at being successful in life.
Reply:Manisha, its pretty AND IT MEANS INTELLIGENT.
Reply:shezah mufalah and takari yulan
Reply:Girls- Zariyah or Aaliyah


Boys- Damarcus, Chase, Chad
Reply:I found that if you use Oprah's baby namer you can look up names by ethnic background, then further search by meaning! Barnes and Nobles also carries lots good babynaming books, one specifically with African/ African American names.





I think it is always good to decide the meaning you want to bestow on your child then search that way.
Reply:I HAVE 2 BOYS NAMED JAI' DEN ZAKARUS AND JA'KAREE CORTEZ . YOU CAN GO 2 WALMART R BOOKS A MILLION AND PURCHASE A BABY NAME BOOK. GOOD -LUCK AND CONGRATS!!!!!!!!!!!!

Reply:I think you should look into giving your child a beautiful African name. My name is Zakiya (zah-KEE-yah) which means intelligent in Swahili. I think if you give your child a name with meaning instead of making up a nonsensical "African American" name it will give him/her a sense of pride. I love my name. It may be difficult for some people to pronounce but it is meaningful to me. And I always get compliments on it.





Go to this website http://www.namesite.com


it has an abundance of meaningful African names. They give the pronunciation, the origin, and the meaning.

Reply:Girls: Brianne or Brianna (Brie for short), Neshume (means soul), Anis, Maya, kiara, idk

Reply:I really like the name Ashauri instead of Ashanti. Ashauri Shante', Shakyra, Taniyah, Aniya, and for a boy Armund, Ausanti, Kyran, Kyris, and Idrese or Edrese. Hope I helped a little. These are just names I really like. Congrats on your pregnancy and Good Luck!
