The Name Fiend is back!
And I have with me a bunch of Akan names!
Notes
The Akan are a large ethnic/linguistic group of western Africa.
The areas with the largest Akan populations are Ghana and Cote d'Ivoire.
The Akan are made up of many different different groups:
Abron
Afutu
Akuapem
Akyem
Anyi
Ashanti (One of the most famous)
Baoule
Brong
Fante
Kwahu
Nzema
Throughout their history the Akan build many different nations and kingdoms:
The Akyem Abuaka State
The Akyem Bosome State
The Akyem Kotoku State
The Baoule State
The Bono State
The Denkyyria State
The Empire of Ashanti
The Fante Confederacy
The Akan are known for their art, especially for their famous woven Kente cloth and their skill at iron crafting
The Akan are also known for their folklore.
Stories of Anansi the Spider are particularly famous.
Stories dealing with Anansi are called the Anansesem(Spider stories)
The Akan are very found of naming children for the days on which they were born,
the order in which they were born, or the circumstances of their births
An interesting fact about twins: the Akan consider the twin born second
to be the true Firstborn, because he or she waited patiently for their sibling to come out first!
