Ghana Day Names

Wear Your Name. Wear Your Story.

In Ghana, particularly among the Akan people, every child is given a Day Name based on the day of the week they were born. This tradition honors the belief that the day of your birth shapes aspects of your personality, spirit, and destiny.

Your Ghana Day Name connects you to heritage, ancestry, and identity. It is more than a name — it is an affirmation of who you are.

Our Ghana Day Name Bracelets are handcrafted wearable talismans that celebrate this rich cultural tradition. Each bracelet honors the strength, spirit, and characteristics associated with your birth day. Whether you know your day name or are discovering it for the first time, this piece becomes a powerful reminder of your essence.
