Aoua

Aoua is a Malian variation of Eve - the original woman’s name - which is fitting for a name so closely connected to Mali's first female parliamentarian.

Aoua Keita’s father insisted on giving her the best education he could - which was unusual anywhere in the early 20th century, but particularly so in Mali. As a midwife, Aoua devoted herself to delivering women the best pre- and post-natal care she could offer, but her feminist credentials skyrocketed after she entered politics. In 1960 she became the only woman elected to Mali’s new National Assembly and was the only woman within the party leadership.

Along with such an impressive namesake, Aoua is one of those unique baby names that consists of only vowels.

Lucky

Aoua lucky number is 2.

Within numerology, the 2 vibration assumes the role of the mediator, creating harmony by bringing together dissonant forces through compassion, empathy, and kindness. 2 is linked to psychic abilities and intuition, and if this number appears as a Life Path or Destiny Number, the individual will be astute to subtle energy shifts and emotional nuances. Because 2 is so sensitive, it is very conflict-averse, and can end up feeling under-appreciated or unacknowledged. 2 must avoid seeking external validation and, instead, realize that perfect equilibrium needed already exists within.
