The Kasiala's Book of African Names - Just $9.50
In this
e-book you will find names that tell stories through their meanings. Stories of children who did not cry at birth. Chronicles of the experience of mothers who were “sleepy throughout pregnancy” and those who gave birth to children while on a journey away from home. Many names simply celebrate the virtues and values that the community  embraces.

Some capture the history of times of struggle, of war, famine, colonialism and the advent of new religions. Others celebrate women founders of their tribe or invoke the spirit of ancestors to shower the newborn baby girl or baby boy with wealth, health, beauty, kindness.

This book tells of the countries where the peoples who give these names are found, their languages and perspectives; from Akan and Bassa'a in the West, though to the Tuareg of North Africa to Chagga, Dinka and the Swahili of East Africa, Lingala, and Kikongo of Central Africa, the Malagaches off the Eastern Coast to the Sepedi, Xhosa and Zulu in Southern parts of the continent.  The book provides a mesmerising journey through the diversity of history, culture and expressions of different ethnic groups as we carefully explore the meaning of each name.

The diversity of these names is now available in one book.
