There is usually a story attached to yoruba names in general, so when a child is born most times the child is given names based on circumstances at birth and experiences the mother had while carrying the pregnancy

@Queen2. Think u should go get a catalogue for ur names. Sure if not because of da time dey spent for ur naming ceremony, they should hv kept on giving u names.
Can u imagine, they only stopped at d first alphabet. had it been that time was on ur parent's side, they 'd hv given u at least 6 names for each letta of da alfabet.

papermoon, that's one of the longest yoruba names. I thought Edo have the longest names in Nigeria -- maybe I was wrong.
