lord have mercy.

but the subordinate pastor even tried nah, at least he still married the lady albeit in an unholy way.

CultureRe: What Yoruba Names Are Commonly Associated With Leadership by tpia6(op): 3:22am On Sep 20, 2014
my point of reference is a general sphere, not a political one.

ie in the context of "what were the parents intentions when giving the child this name".


In politics, generally names like olusegun [God's victory- actually just means victory or victor], babatunde [ancestors have arrived], oba-prefix, ade-prefix [and especially ade-suffix] are sure bankers in that arena. Like, the basic real McCoy.



just my opinions.
CultureRe: What Yoruba Names Are Commonly Associated With Leadership by tpia6(op): 3:09am On Sep 20, 2014
Ade as a suffix is also considered significant.

i think ola as a suffix is also considered important [ie significant].

eg jokotola [sits with wealth], eniola [wealthy person, or person of wealth],
CultureRe: What Yoruba Names Are Commonly Associated With Leadership by tpia6(op): 2:40am On Sep 20, 2014
Olu is supposed to be reverence i think.

ie reverence for God.

the suffix is what would determine the name's reception.

Ade is also somewhat like Akin, but not exactly quite, although it does mean royal.

for example, in Ghana, the name John is seen as presidential, or otherwise VIP.


Which Yoruba names are considered as having that kind of connotation?


imo, i think any name beginning with "akin" generally instills some kind of awe in the hearer [in a normal setting that is, and all things being equal, barring any unforeseen circumstances].
