those sentences for a name
what a burden for a little baby to carry
no baby should be given any name with more than 2 syllabuses.
Oluwa alone is 3 syllabuses abi syllabi
no wonder almost every Yoruba person I know answers 1/4 to I/2 of their names in real life.
Igbos have also started this.
Rather than trendy names like Nneka,Ugonma,Chioma,Kelechi,chika,Chiso, nwando ,they've started naming sentences like

munachisoaga

chukwuatasienamobi

kanyikeneolisa

These names may have beautiful meanings but they are just tooooooooooo looooooong.

dat should tell u that those 2 syllabi names ar gettn out dated if u notice dat d igbos ar doing same thing too. go research hausas they might have gone out of where u ar three

Why are Africans proudly giving their kids English names and you will hardly hear of Oyinbos returning the favor ?

my kids names are:
bearing in mind that most nigerian names have affixes, making it longer when you write it down, we decided to write the names legally without the affixes.  It makes it easier for the child to learn to write her/his name as well (except for my last child whose name is still very long without the affix.

name  w/o affix       with affix           short form           sex           literal meaning

it happens sometimes-- i will definitely name my first boy Kofi even if he is not born on Friday! My fav Ghana name.

<<Why are Africans proudly giving their kids English names and you will hardly hear of Oyinbos returning the favor ?>>

Speaking for myself, I have a daughter who is 1/2 Kenyan who was born in 1994 - before any real content on the internet.  I sent a letter to her family in Kenya (before she was born) asking for tribal names (Luhya) for her.  I received letters in return, but without any names. So, without any naming resources available to me I named her Elizabeth Kenya after her country.

I'm enjoying reading through all of these names.  My husband (Igbo) and I are planning for a boy and will definitely use Igbo names for him.

I don't believe white Americans would be interested in using African names, but some African-Americans certainly would be and every so often you do find an African American with a traditional African name. However, as someone mentioned some of the names are quite long and will most surely be constantly mispronounced by people in the US. So, most people will lean toward something easy to spell and pronounce.

Can someone help me out with these meanings

Oladimeji

Mojisola Abeke

bittatruth:

^^R u nigerian?

cute baby, didn't know u don born

Ola = joy, happines, basically good things.

Di = become

Meji = two

So make the equation

Dunno bout the oda

Yes, I'm Nigerian. My father was born in Ondo township but my mother is American and we moved around so much that I never mastered the Yoruba language.

I do know the meaning of my own name. Ayodele - Joy has come

Unfortunately my father passed away last year and there were some things we never got to discuss.

It's kind of embarrassing, I know.

Thanks,

My son is Oladimeji

My daughter is Mojisola Abeke

My father named them.

No, my son is a few years older.

How old r u bro?

Old enuff

SAFO:

Oladimeji

Mojisola Abeke

Mojisola - "I woke up to wealth"

Abeke? sounds like Abike: Born to treasure.
