Amogelang
Built on the Setswana verb amogela, "to accept or welcome", so the name itself reads as a welcome to the child.
Meaning and origin
Amogelang comes straight from everyday Setswana speech rather than from a fixed stock of naming words, taking the verb amogela and turning it into a small greeting addressed to the newborn.
