| It is not Anaya but Anayo- meaning, let us be looking up to God, or let us be begging/supplicating to God. It is actually the short form of the names Kanayochukwu, Kanayolisa, Kanayonna, where Chukwu, Olisa and Nna all refer to God. It is also actually a statement, thus 'Ka a na ayo chukwu' Ka= let, a (which is a short form of the word 'anyi')= us; na= be, ayo= begging; pleading;supplicating,and all to God who is Nna= Father, Olisa=The Heavenly one, Chukwu or Chi-Ukwu= Great God! Iknow because it is my name! |
