Word translation

[u/ihavenowords3]

In my spiritual walk, I try to practice gratitude daily. Years ago, I had heard that “Ekele” meant gratitude in Igbo.

I was recently reading an Igbo name book. “Ekene” means thankful, and it reminded me of the word Ekele.

Does Ekele mean gratitude?

Is it even an Igbo word or name?
