New names such Amitenejah (pronounced Ami'-ten-Ja) are being viewed as a more meaningful way to maintaing cultural, ancestrial and/or other values from generation to generation.
The name Amitenejah focuses on three core values; family, cultual, and religious -- 'the family of Amy that loves God'. Amitenejah is an American name in origin since it was designed by an African-American.
