--My Junior when I was in school was called "Imole Orukotan ". "Imole" means "Dusk" in Yoruba. Popular name. However: "Orukotan " means "name has finished". People made fun of the kid. -- Another Junior's surname was called "Odetoyinbo " which means "hunter reach oyinbo ".In other words, a hunter is as valuable as oyinbo. --Another Junior's surname was called "Wonbinuola " which means "they're envious of (our) wealth". The name just screams paranoia to me. The annoying thing was that she was always at the bottom of the class. .always scoring zero. .there was clearly nothing about her that we envied. 3 Likes |
