The Kalu or The Kanu is both a surname and a given name for male child in Igbo or Ibo land located in the eastern part of Nigeria. Among the Igbo people it refers to the traditional Igbo god of thunder and lightning, Kamanu or Kamalu, which was then shortened to Kanu. In the Newar community of Nepal this term is used as the surname for the tribal caste under "Shrestha" Community.
