Ghana is a country in West Africa, and like many other countries in the region, traditional last names are not commonly used. Instead, names are often based on the child's day of birth, which is determined by the Akan calendar. The Akan people are one of the largest ethnic groups in Ghana, and their naming system is widely used throughout the country.
For example, a child born on Monday may be given the name Kojo if they are a boy, or Adjoa if they are a girl. Similarly, a child born on Tuesday may be named Kwabena (boy) or Abena (girl). This system is used for all seven days of the week.
In addition to traditional naming practices, many Ghanaians also have Western-style last names, which are often based on the family's history or occupation. These surnames can be inherited or chosen, and can range from common names like Smith or Johnson to more unique monikers.
