Question: Can you explain your name?
Answer: Yes.
- Carter:
- Carter is my first name. I was named after my grandmother on my mother's side. It was her middle name. My grandmother was born in Alberta, Canada.
- The ancestral name comes from American Robert "King" Carter [1] and his father John Carter [2] who was originally from England. Even though "King" was Robert's nickname, it was a sign, a foretelling of the lineage to come.
- Carter (CRTR) is connected with Creator (CRTR).
- Wamaitha:
- I was named after my grandmother on my father's side.
- Wamaitha is a Kikuyu [3] name from Kenya [4] that means "girl of the Maasai" [5], meaning I was taken from the Maasai into the Kikuyu. Maasai is connected with Messiah.
- wa, the first two letters of Wamaitha, means of in the Kikuyu language.
- wa is also connected with the Greek alphabet [6]:
- w - omega is the last letter of the Greek alphabet (lower case).
- a - alpha is the first letter of the Greek alphabet.
- So wa means omega and alpha, last and first, as it is written, "I am the Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last, the Beginning and the End." (Revelation 22:13, NIV) Meaning, the beginning of the quality of bestowal (seeking to benefit others/Nature) and the end of the quality of selfishness (seeking to benefit oneself).
- Kenya is connected with A Key (an anagram), as it is written "I will place on his shoulder the key to the house of David; what he opens no one can shut, and what he shuts no one can open." (Isaiah 22:22, NIV) David is connected with Malchut, the quality of reception, meaning the key will open the quality of reception. Meaning, the quality of reception will be used in bestowal, a state known as Receiving to Bestow. As it is written, "The wolf (reception) will live with the lamb (bestowal) ..." (Isaiah 11:6, NIV)
- Kenya is on the equator, the middle line, which is also connected with the state known as Receiving to Bestow, using the quality of reception in bestowal.
- Kagume:
- Kagume is also a Kikuyu name from Kenya.
- Kagume isn't actually my name, it's an adopted name, it's my uncle's name.
- When my uncle Kagume died, my dad adopted his name as his own. (My uncle Kagume was the 3rd child of 13 children and the 1st male of 7 males. My dad is the 10th child of 13 children and the 5th male of 7 males.)
- Officially, my name is Carter Wamaitha Kagume.
- Ngari:
- Ngari is also a Kikuyu name from Kenya.
- Ngari is my actual name because it's my dad's name.
- Ngari is connected with God because Ngai means God in the Kikuyu language. A Ring is an anagram of Ngari.
- Technically, my name is Carter (The Creator) Wamaitha (The Messiah) Ngari (God).
