Osai can be traced along more than one path. In Edo (Benin, Nigeria) names, Osa means 'God' and generates many names; in Ghana, Osei is a well-known Akan name. Osai may reflect either, or stand as a modern short coinage. Because the lines converge, the routes are uncertain, which we note (said 'oh-SY').
In the U.S. it is very rare for boys. Rare, short, and West African-flavored.
Did you know? Osai sits between two real West African lines — the Edo element Osa ('God') and the Ghanaian name Osei. Which one a family means depends on the family, so the routes are uncertain, which we note (said 'oh-SY').
