100+ Common Ewe Names And Their Meaning

What is the blessing name in Ewe? Ewe last names often show respect to God as the supreme being, thanking Him for life. These names recognize God, often called Mawu Sogbolisa, Mawu Kitikata, or Mawu Adanuwotor. Many Ewe names refer to God, even if this isn't obvious to people who aren't Ewe. For example, "Edotom" literally means "He or she has heard me," but it actually means "God has heard me." The letter "E" in many names often stands for God.
