Thanks for the enlightenment
Alright,

Ajoviyon, the business (of raising) children is good.

Asokere, patridge, (aparo, quail). So asokere might have been a deconstruction of a proverb made into name. That I'm not able to guess.

Ekundayo: they don't translate Ekundayo to Egun language. Rather, Egun adopt the same as though it's Egun.

Kundayo, Egun loves eliminating the first vowel of their Yoruba names, except for letter A or O in most cases.

Ekun, (Avi), di, (zun, lezun), Ayo, (ahya). Aiha, a close sound to ahya means memory. Ajoyo, rejoicing, jahyah.

I hope this helps.

Please I’d like to know the meaning of these names:
Asokere (family name )
Adjoviyon / Adjobiyon

Also the name “ Ekundayo” in ogu language

Thanks
