Ogechukwu
From Igbo oge, "time", and Chukwu, the Supreme God: God's own time.
Meaning and origin
Ogechukwu carries the same idea as Ogechi, that a birth falls exactly when it is meant to, but spells out the second half with Chukwu, the name Igbo tradition gives the Supreme Being, rather than the shorter word chi.
