Noxolo

Notably used in South Africa, Noxolo likely derives from Xhosa, combining uxolo meaning "peace, pardon, happiness" with the feminine prefix no-. Distinctive in look, spiky yet mellow in sound and feel, it has been notably borne by LGBTQ+ activist Noxolo Nogwaza, footballer Noxolo Cesane, musician Noxolo Ngema, and actress Noxolo Dlamini.

Pronounced noh-ZOHL-oh.
