Naming Ceremony For Kingbi's Daughter

Evangelist Raphael Adjei Kingbi and his wife Mavis held a "Naming Ceremony" last week for their second child, a girl, born on June 4, 2008. By tradition, the child was not officially named until the ceremony held on June 18th.

The name given to the little girl is Emmanuella Naa Atswei Anang Kingbi.

Evangelist Ralph gave the following information concerning the meaning of each name.

Emmanuella - God with us
Naa Atswei - First female child
Anang - A 4th born son. Ralph is the 4th born son in his family
Kingbi - Ralph's mother had very fair skin and was called Kingbi, so this has been taken as the family name or the surname

Note: I have given this information as I understood it from Evangelist Ralph during a telephone call earlier today. Please forgive me if any of it is not exactly correct.
