Name meaning and origin

Origin

Khoisan/San (Southern Africa)

Meaning

a masculine name from the San peoples of the Kalahari and surrounding southern African semi-arid regions, one of the world's most ancient genetic and cultural lineages; San names frequently incorporate the distinctive click consonants that are a hallmark of the Khoisan language family, sounds produced by drawing the tongue away from different points of articulation in the mouth; Tcqui belongs to a naming tradition in which identity is intimately linked to place, kin, and spiritual relationship with the animals and plants of the landscape that San hunters have read and interpreted through millennia of careful ecological observation and rock art practice
