Don't give her a name like that.
I always get mad when people mess up their kids with screwed up names from africa, or even asia or indian. The problem is that sometimes people tell ya that it means something and it actually means something else.
Then there are the other parents out there that combine both their names to make a name.
My parents gave me a terrible name now I have to spell my name to every person I call. I have to even do it at school.
Look what would you do if you had a name that you had to spell out 3 times to everybody you talk to on the phone.
Do your kid a favor and not ruin her life with a name like that because believe me 10 or 15 years from now your kid is gonna be mad that you gave her that name and u will remember me.

do you have other choices? i can tell you only from personal experience with my own name...that if it's too uncommon, it will be a constant annoyance for that person...you always get people saying your name incorrectly...you get people asking you a thousand times, how do you say it again? and find yourself repeating the darn thing...then think about other kids, who will typically use your name to be mean and make fun...
i think the meaning is great, but that will be an uphill battle for that child...

It may be O.K. in Nigeria where you don`t have to explain its` meaning all the time, but here I fear it would leave open a space for the chid to be called lots of un-complimentary nick-names.!

Awesome name! My name is Matthew, which is Hebrew for "gift of God', so go with it, she will be blessed.

It would be good. . . for a Nigerian.
I would never use it for a child of mine.
I like unique names, but not THAT unique.
