"Akpos" is short for names such as: Akpomiemie: life is sweet
Akpojotor: life still goes on
Akpome: my life
Just take it as Akpos/AKpor means "life".

I so love my name... Onome... My Own...

Ameen964:
pls someone should tell me meaning of this name Yvett ella. Pls is it an urhobo name?

CHM11:
Elohor means blessing

CHM11:
Actually very easy if you understand the language.

Sooooo many silent letters.

CHM11:
Lol, have you ever been scammed by an urhobo or seen an urhobo person involved in scam? That's very rare because of the moral tradition and long generational oats that keep children away from negative things like scam and all. Any urhobo child involved in such meets his doom in the end. Ask former Delta state govenor James Ibori!

The phrase 'urhobo wayoooo' was actually coined by our distant relatives and neighbours from our phrase of greeting 'urhobo wadooooo'.

Donjowebs:
Bros u try sha..... A plate of starch n oghwo soup cooked with tiko and "tomi" for you!
