70+ TRENDING & MEANINGFUL YORUBA NAMES FOR 2019

I've been asked many times to choose baby names and that's because they think I'm good at this sort of thing. Well, like you, I like beautiful, creative names that have a profound meaning. I believe names are so important and a lot of thought should go into it. With both of my kids I chose their names before they were born and for one of my kids before conception. I recently got one of such requests "to help pick a good name" and I thought I'd share my findings with you. I'm Yoruba so I can only help with trending\modern Yoruba names, you can contribute in the comments.

  2. Digital ke? What’s the meaning of that one? I’m trying to pronounce it in a Yoruba way. I’m not having luck

    1. There is no Yoruba name like DIGITAL. It is Digiola - Digi means mirror, Ola means Honor/Wealth

  3. Oluwaroresimi, taken from Jeremiah 29:11 is my son’s name and it was gotten by divine inspiration when I was asking God for my child’s identity when I found out I was carrying him. I love that I’ve not heard or seen it anywhere else
