#trying hard not to laugh!#

My old neighbor was named Okiskus.

sisisioge:
Ose...you got it! Mrs Godspower Jacobus

Lmao!

Ishilove:
Ehen, are you serious?

Sisisioge, my oga has given us the proper meaning.

I saw it...he didn't see the mischief you've been up to all by yourself! I no dey there o

EfemenaXY:
I still don’t get it

Don't mind sisisioge, she's the one causing confusion here

I plead 'Not Guilty', your ladyship

Most of those names that people think are Nigerian names are actually old British, Latin/Roman or Nordic names (names like Zebrudiah, Paulinus, etc).

The names that end in "us" are usually Latin/Roman. Remember that our parents studied Latin and Classics and speaking Latin was seen as a sign that you are well educated.


Claude = Claudius

Roman = Romanus

Adrian = Adrianus

Paul = Paulus or Paulinus

Godspower , where are you?
Three ladies are currently flashing teeth, showing Pata and sending you strong signals, please why are you not connected already?

Wow! This is interesting. It's just funny how a certain strata still find the whole concept alluring. You won't catch their educated counterparts dead with such names for their children. What's wan fa ke

Na you gan gan be the chief brides maid

Only you Waka go scrutinize him names : Jacob and Godspower. Na you still dey find him name meaning.

IF this were to be real life, by now your one leg and potmanto Don face Godspower house.

Noooo....

You go must be counted amongst the chosen few. You even understand the genesis of @op’s name.

I bet most people who named their children Linus and Paulinus were Catholics who did not understand the antecedents of these names.

EfemenaXY, hi babes

Sisisioge, ify is pointing fingers to you o. She just used '3 ladies' so that we won't know you're the one.

You're just using reverse psychology for us. You're giving Godspower green light in a roundabout manner

It didn't have anything to do with religion. Like I said, many of them studied Latin and Classics and that's what inspired them. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Classics

You mean 'Jacobus'

Hahaha.

Igbotic version is more endearing : Je'coopu(spelt as pronounced).
