Abina

US Popularity Rank: None

Origin: Ghanaian

Meaning: Born on Tuesday

When the Monday blues have ended, but you’re still waiting to leap over that hump day hurdle, there’s nothing quite like a Tuesday pick-me-up. They say a baby brings joy like no other, and little Abina is sure to brighten up every day of your week. Abina is an Anglicized version of the Ghanaian name Abena and is traditionally given to baby girls, meaning “born on Tuesday.” If your family hails from this breathtakingly beautiful country, the name makes for an equally beautiful way to connect baby to their rich cultural heritage. Since there’s only a one in seven chance of baby Abina arriving on a Tuesday, this is a truly fateful choice.
