Kweku-Frimpong is Akan, Twi in Origin.
Kweku-Frimpong blends two Akan elements from Ghana. Kweku (Fante spelling; Asante Twi: Kwaku) is the male day name for a child born on Wednesday, part of the Akan kradin system linking birth weekday to identity. Frimpong (also Frempong) is a venerable Akan surname, analyzed from Twi frim “firm, steadfast” + pong “great, eminent,” thus often glossed as “steadfast greatness” or “noble and resolute.” Together, the hyphen creates a modern compound given name that honors lineage and the day-name tradition.
The name has been used among Ashanti and Fante families since precolonial times, with hyphenated forms gaining visibility in contemporary Ghana and the diaspora. Variants include Kweku-Frimpong, Kwaku-Frimpong, and the unhyphenated Kweku Frimpong; the core element also appears as Kwaku, Kweku, or, for the surname, Frimpong/Frempong. Meaningfully, the full name evokes a Wednesday-born man whose character is anchored in firmness and distinction.
Kweku-Frimpong is absent from every birth registry and name dataset we follow. That's typically a sign of a rare name, a regional or traditional one, or a modern coinage. Either way, it remains a genuinely rare choice.
