Etinosajay: Edo people bear yoruba names my friend. Seankay just educated you and u refused to be teachable. Ogunsuyi can be from edo as Obasuyi, Omoruyi , Osawonyi etc. Balogun, Akerele, Adedeji, ojo etc are names answered in edo including all the names mentioned by Seankay. 3 Likes 1 Share |

Re: Ogenyi Onazi's Traditional Marriage In Benin City (Photos) by Jonwesley(m): 5:40am On Jun 17, 2016 |
Let the argument of she being Edo or Yoruba end by this my analysis: Ogunsuyi is typically a Yoruba name, but it can be borne by any person depending on what the parents choose even when the parents may not be Yoruba. Okay? Then the fact that your roots is Yoruba but you resides in Edo state does not make U Edo also. But the surname of a person matters alot to his origin anyway. Now the Akoko-Edo area up to owan axis are mostly migrants of Yoruba, the same can be said of some parts of Kogi state - Okun etc, and they are neighbours to Akoko LGA of Ondo State. Finally, you are from where your state of origin in Nigeria says, not where your roots is from. So if you are Akoko-Edo by origin, you are from Edo state. Therefore the lady is most likely Edo. 2 Likes 1 Share |

I'm sorry I came late.. So far, the Yoruba have not been able to tell us the meaning of Ogunsuyi.. I believe we have credible Yorubas on NL who have turned a blind eye too, so for their sake and the benefit of the general public we would turn this thread into a teaching thread. The first point is that most people do not know the difference between Edo, edo state, benin and Bini.. edo originally referred to benin kingdom and people who speak the edo (Bini) language. Benin is the headquarters of that kingdom. Today the whole sate is known as Edo state, meaning Bini,Esan, Etsako, Akoko-edo, Owan, Igbanke, and other smaller groups with their distinct languages are all Edo people. So next time you say Edo man you could be referring to lots of people, but a Bini man is a Bini or Benin man (though he's found in other LGs too ) The verb "sē" means to surpass or to be greater than, or more important than something else. Our people have always borne names comparing two subjects, as if they were trying to prioritize them. For example; Omosefe. meaning child is greater than wealth Omosigho. meaning child is greater than money Osasuyi God is greater than honour Obaseki The OBA is greater than (the) market / trade Oviasuyi Ovia is greater than honour Omosuyi. A child is greater than honour Osasogie. God is greater than the ruler etc Finally, Ogun,Osun (osunematon) , Ovia , Okhuahe, Orhiomwon , Olokun etc are deities worshipped in Edo land. There is even ongoing controversy concerning the origin of Ifa - Oguega (Iha), that's another issue. People also bear names reverencing these deities, that's where Ogunsuyi falls in. Others are: Oviasuyi Ovia is greater than honour Igbinosun. I run to / embrace Osun Igbinogun. figure it out Ogunrobo - Ogun is my doctor Izevbokun Igbinoba. I run to/ embrace the OBA Ogunsefe - Ogun is greater than wealth We would not have been having this discussion 25 years ago, because our fathers travelled more than us, majority of whom have never gone west of sango-ota, names like this were commonplace and seun wasn't born then. But christianization has forced many to change their names especially to Igbinosa ; I embrace God, from igbinogun, igbinosun,igbinokun etc Ijesurobo ; Jesus is my doctor, from Ogunrobo Osasuyi , same as the above Osasogie etc Thanks for watching baby124 shogz89 karm16 cc bokohalal 4 Likes 1 Share |

Etinosajay: There's no local govt in Lagos bearing etinosa. Its Eti- osa which means "river bank". Just to clarify. Both languages do have similarities though. However, I wonder why a thread on someone's wedding became a tribal issue. That's the case always on NL 1 Like 1 Share |
