Yoruba Names Of Boys And Girls With Meaning - Babynamescube by lindapace28: 8:16am On Jan 03, 2015 |
Yoruba names are primarily used by the Yoruba people and Yoruba language-speaking individuals in Benin, Togo, and the Nigerian. By custom, Yoruba children are named in a ceremony that takes place 7 days after their birth. The names of the Yoruba children are traditionally found by divination performed by a group of Babalawo, traditional Ifa priests, but in recent times names can also come from those of ranking members of the family, including the father, mother, grandparents, or next of kin. Both the mother and father and other next of kin can give their own favorite names to the child. Yoruba Baby names often come from the grandparents and great grandparents of the child to be named. Yoruba names are traditionally classified into two categories: 1. Destiny Names, also known as Oruko Amutorunwa. 2. Acquired Names.
