Can't find Kayode@ op

Well done oh

Secret_Dreams: Proud Yoruba boy ! I'm sure igbo people will bring out a similar thread soon.

Just as you posted, in a short while. You will see names you've never heard before. All these names have been allowed to die as a result of preference to another.

Typical yoruba thread..... Nke a bu inwe efe. #hiss#

Not attempting to discredit your effort but you've given literary meanings to many of the names. It doesn't work like that in many cases. For instance, "Yewande" cannot be literally translated to "mother looked for me". I'm sure you know it doesn't really mean that. It's actually a name given to a girl whose grand mother just passed away shortly before her birth. Yorubas use it more as a symbol and remembrance of the event rather than anything else.

Cheers.

Op well done i think we should start posting our tribe names and their meaning in english that will be easy.Mine is ogheneochuko meaning God is my helper

What a nonsense

AYEDUN - Life is sweet/Good.
