Emeka

I had classes with an Emeka, pronounced eh-MEK-ah, short 'e'. I love the sound but I'd modify the spelling only because, had I not known how to pronounce it, I would've thought it was eh-MEEK-ah.

Super unique name in the united states. I've actually seen one girl named Emeka. She was smart and funny. Pretty much awesome all around. I would name my daughter this despite it being a boys name. =)
