Swipe through thousands of verified African names, match lists with your partner, and find the name that says exactly what you mean.
Every African name is a sentence — a wish, a story, a place in the family. AfroBabyNames helps you find the one that says exactly what you mean.
SWIPE THROUGH REAL, VERIFIED NAMES
Thousands of names from 15 African naming traditions — Yoruba, Igbo, Hausa, Swahili, Amharic, Zulu, Xhosa, Shona, Akan, Wolof, Somali, Kikuyu, Ganda, Lingala and Fulani. Every name carries its meaning, its traditional spelling, and how to say it. No filler, no invented names.
KEEP THE ONES THAT FEEL RIGHT
Swipe right to keep a name, left to pass. Your kept names build into a shortlist you can return to anytime.
MATCH WITH YOUR PARTNER
You swipe. They swipe. Share your code — by text, WhatsApp, however you like — and the names you BOTH kept rise to the top. No accounts, no sign-ups, nothing to create. When you match on a name, you'll know.
ROOTED, NOT GENERIC
Choose the traditions that matter to your family and the gender you're naming for. The deck is yours: trending names, hidden gems, and the classics your grandmother would recognize.
PREMIUM
The free deck refreshes daily. Premium unlocks unlimited swipes, the complete vault, and unlimited partner matching — as a monthly plan or a one-time lifetime unlock. One Premium even covers the partner you match with.
Your swipes stay on your phone. No account. No tracking. Just names, meanings, and the two of you deciding.
