Kweku-Atuahene is Akan in Origin.
Kweku-Atuahene is an Akan (Twi/Fante) compound male name from Ghana. Kweku/Kwaku is the day name for a boy born on Wednesday - spelled Kweku in Fante and commonly Kwaku in Asante-Twi; related short forms include Kweku and Kwaku without the compound. Day names have been central in Akan onomastics for centuries, signaling birth circumstances and linking the bearer to communal identity and virtues associated with the weekday.
Atuahene functions as an Akan royal or stool-derived surname/title. It contains the element -hene, meaning “chief” or “king,” attached to a stool or lineage name (Atua), so it is often glossed as “chief of the Atua stool/lineage,” with nuances varying by clan and region (Akyem, Bono, Asante, Fante). Historically borne by officeholders and their descendants, it now appears as either a family name or a hyphenated compound with a given name. Variants: Kweku-Atuahene, Kwaku-Atuahene, and Kweku Atuahene.
