I don't know if this applies, but why are people named 'Onyeka' always very stubborn?

I have never, I mean never come across a gentle easygoing Onyeka. My own cousin and an old classmate are two examples out of the numerous I have interacted with.

True BUT it doesn't mean a "good name" in the literal sense of it.
It means that a person's prestige is better than gaining material things and be known for evil.

Yes it does especially on their faith

Yes i do believe that ur name determine ur destiny. My name mean mercifull, and i am a community development worker

To me, it does one hundred percent. I'm a living experience. Everything i do works out for me at God's appointed time n so easily too. So If u like bear "adaka" as a name, na u sabi oooh!

frrank:
Yed it does. I discovered that all my namesake are happy & successful(i mean the once I've met in person).

U nko?

I think it does,more than half of the time

Only if you believe it does enough to act out your beliefs. That's why we advise people to change very negative names because friends and associates will emphasise on that and you know, 'faith comes by hearing.'

what's the relevance of you constantly using the word "faith" on this thread?

Ask Jabez

[quote author=Yomieluv post=29066349]According to mythological science,it does..

Reason because its assume that the tongue is very powerful,and it can command both life,and death..

If someone,or something is being called ascribed with negativity,the person,or something might not end well..

Even in the bible,so many people had a change of name to relieve them of their ominous past..eg- Abraham,Paul,etc.[/
Paul did not change his name.

olodo, must u interprete everything literally? Good name there has nothing to do with the name you bear

It definitely has nothing to do with fate, I know people that bear funny and scary names but are doing fine. Your destiny is your hands jare, work for a great destiny and don't let Africa superstitious belief deceive us. If u like change ur name to good luck, it doesn't guarantee good luck in ur life. Even if ur name is Jabez, u can't be a sorrowful person as a Christian unless that would contradict the bible.

But well it's good to change ur name if u live and do interact with superstitious people cos their dumb minds would discriminate u

DollyParton1:
Yes!
Heard about Jabez in the Bible? Dude had to pray his way out of the bondage his name put him in.
Or Naomi's two sons: Mahlon and Kilion meaning sickly and pinning away respectively. We all know what happened to them.

My coat of many colours that my mama made for mie made only from rags bt I wore it so proudly





Joelyn joelyn joelyn plz don't take my man cuz u can



Mehn I love these two songs from Dolly ehn

I don't know oooo but I believe if one's hardworking and prayerful and keep the relevant laws concerning success, they will most likely be successful.

Names are important though, especially to us Nigerians.

My name, Ebitimi, means success, and I can't say vividly if it's responsible for my success.

My people sabi answer funny names shaaaa....

ceo4eva:
Ask President Goodluck Jonathan!

And how many 'Goodluck' have you seen that became president?

See how as dem line up they say name no fit affect destino. If e no fit, why some parent never call the pikin "Bad" "sorrow" or "badluck?

Had this lil girl in my church named "Koyewonsi" i.e they just cant comprehend. This girl never completed 1-100, and strange things happened until d name was changed.
