European influence brought about surnames/last names among the Akans . It was not a practice . For instance my name is yaw yeboa real name that is named after my father’s uncle … my father’s is Kwasi Asare … we were compelled to now assume our father’s name hence I had to add Asare to mine …
My father's first Name is Adjei Kyeremeh and my last name is Adjei . Can anyone explain this please? My second question. Why do I have no name middle name. I don't see this with other Akan people in the USA. Explain.
