I have a question though: how can OMOLARA f Yoruba possibly Mean "born at the right time" in Yoruba? Me thinks it means A child is family or a child is my family or my child is my family, but most definitely what the above indicated, maybe I'm missing something here, |

Re: Nigerian Baby Names by Efunlola: 6:10pm On Dec 17, 2008 |
I would like to know the meaning of these two names: Efunlola & Ogunseye Thanks in advance. |
Re: Nigerian Baby Names by Ilelobola: 2:57pm On Jan 14, 2009 |
Can anyone come up with a slightly different spelling for the name "Diekola-Oluwa" meaning the blessings of the lord are abundant. I prefer more traditional names for children and really do like this one but don't like the Die in front of it. I know it's not the English word but if I name my child that, he/she might be bullied at school for the name as we are living in the UK. Thanks. @ Efunlola I'd think Efunlola means Efun is my wealth or something similar. Efun is a Yoruba deity. Ogunseye might mean Ogun has given a reason to celebrate. Ogun too is a Yoruba deity. Literal translations of course. |
Re: Nigerian Baby Names by Efunlola: 7:13pm On Jan 14, 2009 |
@Ilelobola, Thanks for the translation, Wow, I did not know that there was an Orisa "Efun" in Yoruba culture, Could you be referring to Orisa Obatala? Thanks in advance. |

Efunlola: Correct! That white substance use in decorating the body and used for whitening house wall in olden days is the thing called EFUN. It is a chalk like soil. Takum like, It an essential ingredient in the sacrilegial ceremony of OBATALA worship. It is itself NEVER a deity. 1 Like |
