I am talking about the post from Wikipedia.
Here.
For your information Wikipedia isn't a reliable source, can be distorted, mischievous, lacks credibility for any source of information.

It was all a Joke, the dude I am teasing does not want anything to do with Nigerian girls but he talked about Yemisi which is a Yoruba girl and I decided to be sarcastic and that followed. I wasn't using it as fact or so

Your name can affect you spiritually, that is why God changed Abram to Abraham, Jacob to Israel.
Same way Jabez name affected him till he cried out to God.

Reason why having a name with virtue and goodness is spiritually encouraged.
Re: Does Someone's Name Affect Him/her?? by Ashirioluwa: 5:43pm On Jan 16, 2021
Nigerian mentality............. name is nothing but a means of identification. Don’t allow anyone to fool you concerning this.

I don’t know why all these strange believes are only in Nigeria or Africa. This is reason we are backwards in everything except bad government, crime and voodoo.

Reason pastor/Alfa fooling their followers.

Nothing happened to westerners when they bear all these name like Bush, Stone, Gay, Tree but here in my society this is a different thing

But people are still using those names- Jacob, Abram

They are not the Jacob of the bible. God changed Jacob's name to Israel because he wanted to change his destiny.

Why would I name a child an insult? What would be the point of that? Names are an identifier that has mostly sentimental value. Mumu has no sentimental value to me. People change their name all the time and it doesn't change who they are so why think a name has an effect?

You said what you name a child does not affect anything.

Affect anything as in destiny or such superstition, not affect as in be a nuisance. If someone names their child Bleep You it shows the person just wants to be a nuisance.

Yes...... your name can either affect you negatively or attract something good like favour to you.
Re: Does Someone's Name Affect Him/her?? by JJOF(m): 9:16pm On Jan 16, 2021
I do believe that names have little or no effect on destiny. There are many Johns, Peters, Israels, Marys(although this name has a "bad" meaning), Josephs, Emmanuels, etc, who engage in disastrous activities, that negate the meaning of their names. I read a comment of a lady here who said that she feels she's a singer because her name is Praise. What of the many Praise out there that don't know what key is in music, not to talk of being able to sing on one? A lot of things shapes a man's destiny, but names, have little or nothing to do.

I'm only responding to your opinion where you said what you name your child does not matter

Imo
Yea
A lot of people called Joshua tend to be well liked and intelligent.
People called Chioma or Ifeoma tend to be gentle or soft spoken.
People called David seem to be coordinated
People called Jennifer tend to be sexual freaks.
People called Chinedu tend to be social and stubborn.
People called Joseph are randomly behaved. No particular tendency.
People called Precious tend to be easily influenced.
A lot more I cannot recall.
So yea. I think name has a subtle effect.

People called Chibuike are mostly stubborn

DIVINEEVIDENCE:
Men called Ephraim are never straightforward in their dealings.

Girls called Blessing usually have large mammary glands, there are always very few exceptions.

Boys called Emmanuel are usually intelligent or with remarkable personality.

Check out these few instances and you'll see a thread of connection running through.

They may not mean much, but you find these traits in the majority when you take a sample.

It doesn't mean other people with other names won't have these traits, but when you take a large sample of people bearing these names, you'll be shocked at the results you get.

Ever found someone naming their child Satan, Devil, Jezebel, Delilah.
Why?

Names are spiritual, they mean much.
What of those named John?
