I think so.


I once had a girlfriend called “Yemisi”, that girl’s head game is awesome.

Yemisi, wherever you are right now, God will bless you abundantly for me.

Maybe in Africa, but in advanced countries, some people name their children, Bush, Gates, Rock, Steel, Tiger, Stone, and these are hugely successful people. Everything counts as much in Africa because of their barbaric mentality

It has no effect whatsoever, I believe however that circumstances of birth cum upbringing and environment has a way of shaping the personality of an individual not name. grin cheesy.

Names has no effect on humans,, whatever happens to you is not because of your name. I have seen people with bad names that are much successful than ones with good names. Name is just for identification

l don't believe it one bit. When people fail in life or it thinks goes south, they look for an excuse.

If name affects one, we hear whites answer all manners of names too

If you are a Christian, you will agree with me that it is written that the power of life and death lies in the tongue. That being said, every name is an expression of some feelings or something as well as a declaration therefore I have no doubt that someone's name affects him or her.
Except something is wrong I don't see reason why someone called Emmanuel should lack in anything because in every passing day, many people are by his appearance or for the need of his presence, made to declare the statement, God with us(Emmanuel).

Yes it affect person way of life


Their is one man he allow people to be calling him " enuki ni hun lowo waa '

If i translate it to english directly it means " money is located in the mouth of a Lion " i cant translate it like that because an idiom is not translated directly

So it means "money is hard to get and we must get it by all means " dat slogan is what really push the guy everywhere ge goes , cus he talk about money everytime and vow to get it by all means , he's a street nígga he belongs to the street wink

That's what everybody calls him , on dat amazing day nah so few notes of money fell down on the road it a busy road, naso so his niggas hailing him " enu kini hun" enu kini hun " go for dat bottles so dat we can have more alcohol to drink ,


He stood up aiming to the road , he probably didn't calculate it very well as he's picking the money naso one trailer knocked him down, so sad undecided , it not a cooked up story it happens even the radio station have it on their timeline ,advising people on effect of bad names, so be careful of the name people calls you cus it is the one dat will be motivating you every time


As for me my real name and nick name means boss so anywhere i dey people treat me like boss and i always act like boss cheesy tongue ,

What people calls you really matters , abeg no let dem call you , dick-sucker grin or vagina-destroyer grin cus the day you will suck goat dick cheesy or forkking lizard grin as the case of men , let us be careful of the names people call us cus it really matters smiley

In a way.

Arrrm.. I had to believe this when I discovered my baptismal name means "praise". And Im naturally a praise singer.

So yeah it works. I didn't know this until I began to sing and became a great singer to the point I was advised to join the choir. Years down the line, I just said to check the meaning of my name and realized I've been operating under the power of my name jewessgratitude> "praise" . Now, I'm naturally chosen as a praise or lead singer in any church I find myself. ...

To God be the glory.

No. I doubt. There's a Nigerian footballer by name Isaac success who plays for Watford. He's been so unsuccessful with football. I know of someone who goes by the name 'favour' and everything about that person is in stark contrast to her name

I bet if Eden Hazard was a Nigerian kid, he'd probably be labelled hazardous from whom something meaningful could never come.
