Comments for OBI:

Short form of Obinna. As a very loose/literal translation, I would take this to mean something like 'heart of the father' or 'father's heart.' (Obi=heart; nna=father).

Obi wan-Kenobi is Luke Skywalker's mentor in "Star Wars."

The name of Luke Skywalker's mentor is Obi-Wan Kenobi, not Obi wan-Kenobi.

In Saw 2, Obi is a character who burns to death in a furnace-like device. His name is pronounced AH-bee.

I love this name, especially with the meaning "heart". I wish the Star Wars connection wasn't so strong.

One O away from Oobi, the title character from the Noggin show for preschoolers.
