In all the world, Aminu (Aminu , Амину , أمينو ) is a widespread principally male, but very seldom feminine forename. The first name Aminu is characteristic of Nigeria, where it is a common principally masculine, but very infrequently feminine name, Ghana, where it is quite a common predominantly masculine, but scarcely female name, and Libya, where it is quite a rare epicene name. In absolute terms, it is commonest in Sub-Saharan Africa, particularly Nigeria, Ethiopia, and Ghana. Also, Aminu is the last name as well as the forename.
