gatiano: Who are you to give Islam to Arabs? What do those names like Fatai & co mean in Yoruba? I know you have been indoctrinated by the Arabs, we have our names peculiar to us only e.g Ayinde, Olamide, Ajibade, Akande Oriyomi. These are names whose meanings are known to any Yoruba. |

Why would I do that now? You have not read enough of my post to see how I feel about those cannibalistic arabs and white people who are all caucasians. I admit that I don not know enough yet. But I am not giving Islam to the arabs, Islam originated from the Black people. Every words that there is that has sound are all from the Black people. I will not say Africa, We were the first settlers of all the corners of the planet earth. So Brother, it will be well appreciated if you continue to educate Us about the original names. And also do not forget that there are Black people who are actually the Original settler of the North east Africa which is today called Middle-east, They had their own accents and a lot of them migrated down south when the cannibalistic caucasian people brought their diseases from the caves of europe. walexy30: |

Dhugal: Although one must add that it doesn't seem that the Arabs have a name like Badmus or Badamasi. My guess is that the original Arabic name has been Africanized beyond recognition. The second part of the name though (-amasi) sounds like its Arabic original was al-Masri, meaning 'the Egyptian' and used in the Arab world as a name. 1 Like |

It is Obadimu. Obadimu- "O" and "I" were removed and "S" was added. That is Badmus. The question is why are names changed this way? For what Purpose? Radoillo: |

Re: Is Badmus A Yoruba Name? by Nobody: 12:08pm On Aug 27, 2015 |
gatiano: Why do you think the name is strictly of Yoruba origin? It occurs in variations within the Yoruba-Nupe-Hausa cluster. Another clue to its possible origin is to study its occurrence within Yorubaland. For example, does it occur more in areas of Yorubaland that are more islamised than other areas of Yorubaland? Does it occur more in Yoruba families with a Muslim background (even if now they have been converted to Christianity)? If the answers are 'Yes', then it could strengthen the case for a possible Arabic origin for the name. 1 Like |

Fvckyou very much with that question you want to fvck my brains with (lol, just joking because, you that question is heavy). The answer is with also a question, What does the word "Yoruba" come from and is this word really Yoruba? If Our Ancestors of about 42 generations ago should come now, we meet them without dieing, will we understand each other? Radoillo: |
Re: Is Badmus A Yoruba Name? by Dhugal: 12:39pm On Aug 27, 2015 |
Radoillo:Not to forget the fact that the Obadimu he keeps harping on is actually Obadiyimu,nowhere close to Badmus. Another variant of Badmus I've come across is Bademosi,a la Deji Bademosi(formerly Badmus) of Channels Tv that time.Despite the attempt at domestication,Bademosi sounds closer to Badamasi much more than Badmus. |
Re: Is Badmus A Yoruba Name? by gatiano(m): 12:51pm On Aug 27, 2015 |
Obadimu is more popular within the Yoruba simply because of it seeming direct meaning. Badmus does not have meaning in Yoruba Language, Gbadamosi too does not sound clear in Yoruba language. Obadimu is actually pronouced Obadinmu or Obadimimu meaning The King held close to me or holding me, or in the bossom of God or King. It is more of Yoruba than any other. Yoruba original is Yooba- YodBa. Ba means people or Spirit (Ba-ntshu/Ba-ntu, Ba-Tshwana, Ka'a-Ba, or Ka-Ba-lla, etc), Yod means Light or fire or Water, 7 Elements as a whole. I am opened for correction here on this one. Radoillo: |

Dhugal: I think my earlier 'Egyptian' guess was wrong. I looked around a little and found an Arabic name that might fit. 'Abdalmasih' which means 'servant of the messiah'. The name still presents an enigma though, since it is an Arab Christian and not an Arab Muslim name. If it is the source of Badamasi, then it must have been introduced by Egyptian Copts. 2 Likes |

Could "IFA" be "EPHOD"? the non-blacks took and retranslate IMISI-IYE --- (I)MISI- (I)YE--- MISIYE-- MESSIA---MESSIAH. IMISI Means BREATH, IYE means EXISTENCE. IRUNMOLE--- IMOLE/IMALE/UMOLE---- MALA'K(singular) MALAKIM(plural) in Judaism and MALAKAH IN Islam (Yemitom) Radoillo: 1 Like |
Re: Is Badmus A Yoruba Name? by 2prexios: 3:53pm On Aug 27, 2015 |
someone should endeavour to ask gaitano who was obadimu, whose name got changed to badmus or gbadamosi. Albeit, the closest to gbadamosi or badamosi that I know of is Bada. Note, what makes Bada Yoruba though it has close resemblance to 'shi bada-amuda' is that, it comes within Yoruba cluster, as in, 'bada-barawu-oloye'. Badamosi is not Yoruba hence it has no relative clause, word cluster or fine-tuner because it was a late comer without any familiar indigenous adoption. |

It is good, We must have to investigate which would involve some little disagreement before we arrive at the truth. However, we can never get the source or origin of words unless and only when we start it from the beginning. Thus, What is the very first language? Radoillo: |

Excuse my rambling but im going to be all over the place before i address the topic. The reason is because i believe life is a story, it works well when fed in meaty narrative, as opposed to skeletal chronicle entries. Everywhere on the planet people can be divided along names adopted from lineage of conquerors. Exceptions are East Asians. They dropped their conquerors names and went back to using their indigeneous names and languages. The lineages are - Arab English French Spanish These lineages can be categorized into - Arab European. In certain places people have lost their indigeneous names and all they have left for identity is Arabized or Europeaned names. These two categories of name lineage also correspond closely with universal terrorism. Those who frighten and kill others to force their ideology on them. Everywhere in the world, names adopted from these murderers appear in variations that feature in the local tongue. A lot of controversy has popped up lately arguing the Yoruba case against Arab, whether in name or word expressions. Did Arab donate to Yoruba, or was Yoruba the donor to Arab? Let's examine the Yoruba name Apata for instance. It means Rock. It serves as attribute of one who is dependable for support....someone to lean on, a pillar of strength. Then in Bible its equivalent is Peter. Did Yoruba donate to Bible or was Apata a Yorubanized feature of Peter? I have encountered someone with first name Peter and surname Apata. I looked at his form and looked up at him in disbelief...wondering in my mind if this individual knew that by writing Peter Apata, he just gave his name as "Peter Peter" or " Apata Apata". Let me return to Yoruba and Arabic. I like what Rodeillo said somewhere on this thread that Gbadamosi must have derived from Badamasi which took origin from Badmas, which in turn was culled from Abdulmasih. He attributed its origin to Egyptian Copts. Not all names in Arabic are Islamic. Many people need to be instructed on this as only few have the knowledge to trace name roots. The Arabic name Abubakar is bear by Muslims. This name existed before Muhammed introduced Islam. His uncle, a leader of the Koreish tribe, was named Abubakar. The Koreish were guardians of Kaaba, the shrine in which they worshipped their deity gods. In Yoruba deity gods are called Orisha. Compare Koreish and Orisha. The name Abubakar is Bakare in Yoruba. If Abubakar was a leader of his people he would also have been a Priest of the Orishas. Many ancient words have been lost in Yoruba but the word Akarigbo remains with us. Its a title now amongst the Ijebus. Amongst the Chiefs in Lagos there is Akarigbere. Could Abubakar in Arab Orisha worshippers have been same as Yoruba Orisha adherents of Akarigbo? Compare Abubakar to Abobakarigbo. Where was the genesis of Abubakar, in Yoruba....or in Arab? Where was genesis of Gbadamosi, in Yoruba....or in Arab?
