Amadi
Meaning of Amadi
Amadi is a unisex name with roots in the Igbo language of Nigeria and parallel usage in Swahili-speaking regions. Pronounced ah-MAH-dee (/aˈmadi/), its three-syllable structure and alternating vowel-consonant pattern ensure straightforward articulation. In Igbo, Amadi conveys the notion of “free man,” reflecting themes of autonomy and resilience. According to U.S. Social Security Administration records, it first entered the top 1,000 at rank 674 in 1977 and has since oscillated between the mid-600s and low-900s, with fifteen newborns given the name in 2024. This steady yet unembellished trajectory underscores its appeal to parents seeking cultural depth and gender neutrality, positioning Amadi as a technically precise, globally resonant choice that resists runaway popularity.
