Kanye (name)
Kanye /ˈkɑːnjeɪ/ is an Igbo name meaning "Let's give" or to give honor, tribute. The name is usually a shorter version of another name e.g. Kanyechukwuekele (let's give God praise). Kanye is also a short form of Adekanye, a popular Yoruba name. Yoruba people tend to drop the prefixes in their names during everyday usage. Kanye means "Only One" in South Africa's Nguni Language, Xhosa. Nguni languages originate from Central Africa and their meanings do not really change as Ngunis moved further south. It is highly possible therefore that there are other languages where Kanye means "the Only One".
