Igbo Name In Yoruba Family by Benbobola(m): 3:58pm On Jun 01, 2023
Hello guys.
I just had a baby girl in my family (yoruba tribe) and I so love her. There is one igbo name I know and would love to name her. It's so sweet when I hear the name and I want to know if its okay. I would also appreciate if anyone here can help me with the basic cultural meaning of the name.
ADAORA
This is the lovely name I would want to call my daughter. I k ow I can find basic information on the Internet, but I just want more knowledge on it from the igbo cultural perspective. Thanks

Really this is what you have to say? You think I am jobless? Hahaha I can't even dignify that statement with a response.
Anyways she has yoruba and english names already.
I love all tribes and learn from them all. And being someone who has been to other cultures even outside the country, I like being multidiverse. So if you don't have an actual response, you could just not say anything

Literally, Adaora means Daughter of the People. In Igbo culture (as well as in many other African cultures), the child is said to belong not just to the parents, but the wider community. This is a name that underscores that cultural belief. In this sense Adaora is a daughter loved and cherished by all.

Things have gotten out of hand. There used to be a time we give Igbo, Ghana or Hausa names. Especially, second names.

My favorite Igbo name for girls is Chiwe or Ngozi

All my cousins who were born in Lagos were given Yoruba second names.
