The Akan people of Ghana frequently name their children after the day of the week they were born. Day names are a cultural practice of the Akan people of Ghana and Ivory Coast. Everyday corresponds to a different Akan male and female name. Most names are later spelt and pronounced differently. The variation of the spellings and pronunciations depends on the Subcultural Akan group. For example, the Fante people pronounced all the day names differently whilst the Akuampim people spelt it differently but pronounced it the same as the Akans.
