I don't know many African names, however, some of them are lovely. I like Johari, Marjani, Amara, Naima, Imani and Nia. One of the little girls in Anna's Scout troop was called Akosua which I thought was gorgeous.

Akosua

I can definitely see the attration in Akosua. Naima too, althought I thought that was Arabic. Arabic culture has such influence in Northern Africa that I suppose it hardly matters.

Thanks for Akosua!
