SUMMARY OF FINDING
This project work reports on the gender inequality of the Nne and Nna Igbo personal names. one would observe that gender played a key role in the analysis of the data collected. Nna data was much as compared to Nnes’. These data was analyzed syntactically, lexically, significantly and asymmetrically.
The Igbo personal names having the affixes of Nne or Nne appeared either at initial, medial or final position for the clauses and came before or after the stem for the compound category. I also observed that personal names that had Nne begin the name appeared in this structure of tone marking “Ńné” for the names that ended with Nne appeared in this structure of tone marking “ńnē”while for the personal names that had Nna begin or end the names appeared in this structure Ńnà except for Ńnāòrà which i believe occurred because of the oral vowel /o/ that / a / preceded .
I also observed that the meaning explanation of the data for Nna personal names showed male child superiority while the reverse was for the case for Nne personal names.
