Chidi

Chidi is a gender-neutral name of African origin, specifically belonging to the Igbo language and religion. This cheerful appellation trips off the tongue and dances in delight, exclaiming, “God exists!” It’s a blend of the elements Chi, which, in Igbo religious thought, refers to the spark of divine energy from God that everyone carries, and di, meaning “is.” You may recognize the name for the comedically indecisive but oh-so-loveable Chidi Anagonye in The Good Place. No matter where baby ventures in life, they will always keep a pep in their step with a joyful name like Chidi.
