Meaning: Born on Sunday

A relatively rare gem to discover, Kisi is considered a girl’s name of Akan and Ewe origin. Inspired by Ak-Wasi, Kisi adopts the meaning “born on Sunday,” modernizing the age-old Ghanaian tradition of naming your child after the day they were born. Kisi, or Kissi, is also the name of a Niger-Congo language of the Bantu family, spoken in West African countries like Liberia, Sierra Leone, and Guinea. This rich background is complimented by Kisi’s light and sweet-sounding chime.
