These names have meanings to them which are important to the pple who gave them the name
What gives you the right to hate another person's name

why are you in this thread if you're gonna whine? am I the only one who posted a name?

Go and sleep if you're bored. Thanks

Funmi, ori e ti yi. any girl named Dotun is obviously a disappointment to the parents cos it means they wanted a boy.

Taiwo is garbage. Tuwo ni. Why not Tura sef
