Thread: Haitian names?
Here are a few: Girls- 1.) Chant (pronounced Shan-teh) which means "to sing" in Kreyol. 2.) Ayida who is the spirit of love. 3.) Brigitte (brih-ZHEET) despite being the keeper of death, the name is quite popular and doesn't hold up to its orginal meaning. 4.) Fabiola...I don't know the meaning and I really doubt that the name is Haitian in orgin but my dad insists that I put it down. 5.) Ghislaine...I have no idea. 6.) Bijou (Bee-jou) which means jewel. 7.) Lourdes....I have no idea. 8.) Kiskeya (Kis-KEY-ah) which means "mother of all lands". This name goes back to the orginal inhabitants and ancestors of Haiti(ans), the Taino Indians. 9.) Anacaona who was a Taino Queen. The name means golden flower. Boys- 1.) Agwe (AGH-way) he is the spirit guide of the sea and belongs to the Haitian trinity. 2.) Azacca (ah-ZAH-kah) he is spirit guide of argiculture. 3.) Zac can also be used from Azacca. 4.) Hennrick which is basically the Haitian form of Henri (French) and Henry (American). That's all I could think of for now...
