Origin: Ghanaian

Meaning: Born on Monday

Kojo is a fitting masculine name for a Monday's child. A variant of the Ghanaian Kwadwo found in the Fante and Ga dialects, Kojo means "born on Monday." Much more than denoting a day of birth, Kojo embraces the cultural belief of the Akan people that each day represents a deity and particular characteristics. And so young Kojo emerges as a reflection of peace and nurture, rooted in the day of quiet.
