Everything has a meaning in this world, but it is certain
that all Nigerian names have meanings. In the Nigerian culture names are
important because they believe that names might determine a child’s part in
life. Meaning is attached to our names and a lot of them deal with prayer,
family, wealth and God. Our parents give us names that mean something and they
can even be depended on a situation like if something happened. For instance,if maybe a baby was having difficulties at birth and survived, a parent may name the child " Temitope" which means mine is worthy for praise. My name is"Teniola" and it means bringing wealth to the
family and I myself believe that I will bring wealth to my family later in
life. Here is a website of a list of many Nigerian names and there meaning.
