CultureRe: Is LAWAL A Yoruba Name by Eniyan9Ji: 6:49pm On Jan 29, 2023
chijiblaze:
And what name do you call the second Muhammad? Or even the third… Is there one?
Second Muhammad is Muhammadu Thanni
Third Muhammad is Muhammadu Thalith

Yorùbá call Muhammadu Thanni= Sanni

Haven't you noticed that mostly Muslim Yorùbás or Yorùbás with Muslim father's are those that usually end up with the name Sanni and Lawal?

First Muhammad is Muhammadu Li-Awal. Yorùbás shorten it to Lawal. They shorten Thanni to Sanni. Most of the times there's no third Muhammad. Islam has been in Yorùbá land for almost 1000 years Yorùbás even call some Arabic letters with Yorùbá accent. So don't worry, Lawal is definitely of Arabic origin in Yorùbá tongue.
