Re: Edo Names And Their Meaning by efogie: 11:11am On Feb 14 |
Etrusen:
thanks for your time bro but you see the word "Edo" came into used generally by the binis due the love shown on prince Ogun before becoming the Oba Ewuare 1 we all know about. so the love shown is what we agree to be the meaning of the word "Edo". but I will agree with you that the name have been used b4 that great act of love was shown. Best way to explain this is for to observe most English or Hebrew names in the Bible you will see that their names meaning is derive from what they did or the great event that took place with the person.
for Ayo it is infinity or let me say to fullness e.g na mie ke na mue ne ni wina sa yo I.e in order to see the work to the fullness.
for that of love, it is commonly called "Awemwonmwan, but you have to understand that in Benin for instance we have the ancient ( Edo nede) and the present day mix Benin.
for that of Michael Owen I can't really say how he got his name but in Benin sun is Oven or Owen.
If Oven or Owen is sun, please what is moon. Please do a proper research and allow people grounded in the field to edit it before posting, so that you wont mislead most of our coming generation that are not grounded or opportune to miggle with their edionmwan and edede. Thank you |
