Ozovehe is a native name of Ebira people. It means "child is life". The name is usually given to first male born of a family - this is not exclusively for first male borns i.e. any male born could bear the name. It is an expression of the joy of having a male child - who are often seen as those to carry on the family name.

The seemingly close feminine equivalent is Ozohu or Oziohu meaning "Child is the greatest" i.e. greatest of all natural gifts.
