lexiconkabir:Yeah. "7. Oríkì oruko (Oríkì attached with some names): There are sub categories of Oríkì oruko.o Names emanate from oríkì for instance Akuruyejo.o Also, some names have special oríkì sometimes because they have birth process, the day/time they were born or remarkable event around the time they were born, for instance Ojo/Aina, Olugbodi, Abidemi etc.o Apart from this, some names are used for praise singing, such names are called oruko oriki. It is the tradition in some parts of Yoruba land to give chlidren oruko oríkì, that is; names that praise sing a child, for instance; Aduke, Akanni, etc. Such names start with A." https://orikiwa./2012/01/06/hello-world/?_e_pi_=7%2CPAGE_ID10%2C5460217164 1 Like |

Most of these are not Orikis jare, these are Orukos. Oriki is something like Omo Afi abere gunyan Emi n ba bi, emi o ba yo Omo onile owo to ko gbogbo oja lo Omo .... ... .... .. Ile won ni won ti maa n se ....... Idile baba yin ni won ti ma n se ..... Ogun o ko iran baba won l'eru ri... and so forth ..... That is what a proper Oriki should look like. 4 Likes 1 Share |

Kazrem: lol, WAllaahi I also thought of Alake, but you know there is a way it can be pronounced to give a male name and a female name, if you do "iyanu di e pe" you get a male name, if you do "iyanu pe" you get a female name, so I was confused if there is actually that of female cuz I've forgotten. who knows it can also be Amope. |
