Kwame. I really, really would have loved to have used it but dh wasn't keen and it seemed somehow wrong to use it as it's not from either of our heritages. But I love it.

Keane because (unless I am
mistaken in which case I apologise) the others are invented. I realise that all names were invented at some point, but I'm part of the MN reactionary contingent that dislikes made-up names.

MyNightWithMaud · 02/09/2016 18:49

Kwame. Thank you, autocorrect.

InionEile · 02/09/2016 18:49

Kwame. The others are too 'yoonique'

SquirrelPaws · 02/09/2016 18:50

Kwame. Only ever met one but he was lovely.

NellWilsonsWhiteHair · 02/09/2016 18:51

Kwame. Kadema is also nice but I don't like the other two.

BarbLives · 02/09/2016 18:52

How about Kian?

TwentyCups · 02/09/2016 18:59

Keandre is my favourite

Sophronia · 02/09/2016 18:59

Kwame

TheWildRumpyPumpus · 02/09/2016 19:02

Love Kwame, have known 3 who were all lovely. Think I've met a Kadema as well - are they all Nigerian names OP?

Alisvolatpropiis · 02/09/2016 19:23

I really like Kwame. It has such a nice sound.

Kadema is nice too.

Sugarpiehoneyeye · 02/09/2016 19:32

Kwame

GinIsIn · 02/09/2016 19:33

I love Kwame

IfartInYourGeneralDirection · 02/09/2016 19:34

Kadema

CoconutAndVanilla · 02/09/2016 19:36

Kwame

MargotLovedTom · 02/09/2016 19:38

How is Kwame pronounced? Is it Kwam-ay or Kwaym?

RiverTam · 02/09/2016 19:38

Everyone will say Kwame as its the only one they'll have heard of. I have no idea if the others are 'made-up' or not. Are they all for a boy, because to my ears Kadema sounds like a female name.

I'm not actually all that keen on any of them.

Willow33 · 02/09/2016 19:39

How about Kadian? It means 'cheerful and charming'.

sonlypuppyfat · 02/09/2016 19:41

Are these boy or girl names

Longislandicetee · 02/09/2016 19:43

In some countries in Africa, Kwame is the name given to a boy born on Saturday.

The others are weird.

I like Kadema and Keandre best.

Footle · 02/09/2016 19:55

Yes, Kwame is a Ghanaian / Ivorian day name for a boy born on Saturday.

eyebrowsonfleek · 02/09/2016 20:00

I've only heard of Kwame and really like it based on how it sounds and the people that I've met with the name.

ayeokthen · 02/09/2016 20:02

I like Kadema.

EnquiringMingeWantsToKnow · 02/09/2016 20:04

I like Kwame, Kwasi, Kwabena and Kofi for boys born on the relevant days. The other three (Kwaku, Kwadwo and Yaw) aren't so great to English ears so if you had a baby on those days maybe look elsewhere for ideas Grin
