Oh please!

Nnenna, Nweze and osisi are full ghetto names. I am yet to see any woman that bears that name. Tosin, Toyin and Yetunde's have a tendency for prostitution. it's never a cool name if you understand what I mean.




What is the meaning of osinachi?

Chineke God
So prostitution is now by name eh kwa?
Do you like Ngozika?

Osinachi means "came from God"

Oko is a town in Anambra state.
Okosisi means great tree
the real spelling is Oke osisi
Oke means great
but they take off the first vowel where there were 2 to make it a non compound word

Maybe she will stop when you stop all this your tribal bias and discrimination. undecided

I am not descriminating against anybody. I am not like that but that doesn't mean I wouldn't update those that seek to live in denial. They should be thanking me because I have plans underway to elevate the north like no other with my NGO set to take off by summer 2015. I must liberate Northern women from poverty, illiteracy, diseases and sexual/spousal abuse. Knowledge is power and they are yet to acquire one.
Re: Nigerian Ghetto Names by KarmaMod(f): 9:56pm On Jan 22, 2009
Really.
Shocked Shocked
karma's name is Dotun?
So men and women bear that name?

Do you know of any female named Dotun? Dotun ko. Dokun ni

Most people are aware that my real name is precious  kiss


I hate Iyabo, Sumbo, most Yoruba Muslim names esp those ones ending with "rat" and "atu".

I also hate the names set for Yoruba twins. "Taiye/Taiwo and Kehinde". Yuck.

Gboyega is pretty bad too. Gbenga is better. Gbolohan is the worst
