Girls in Yoruba culture may receive names that highlight joy, family legacy, or gratitude to the divine. Selections like Yetunde (“mother has come again”) indicate ancestral return, whereas names such as Ayomide (“my joy has arrived”) celebrate blessings. These names tie a child to traditions carried through centuries of rich oríkì, ensuring her identity brims with cultural pride and an enduring sense of kinship.
