"No really say it again. I forgot my name." Unless you've suffered from amnesia you've probably never said these words. Yesterday, I did.
This week I was given a Baoule' name. In this language, names are given according to which day of the week you are born. So because I was born on a Tuesday my name is Konadio.
If you are wondering what your Baoule' name is you can use this chart to find out. Just don't ask me how to pronounce it.

Thursday. Ahou Kouakou
