Everyone in Nigeria that isn't bearing an english name(or catholic name/muslim name) knows the REAL meaning of their name so there's this software is bullshit to us. My full name, Toluwalakinegbontiwalayo(Just call me Tolu) means
"This male/strong man belongs to God; he's the older brother(egbon-big bro) of Tiwalayo(a girl's name meaning "Our's is joy")". In other words, my dad didn't want a male child, he wanted a girl so he dedicates me to God and says, "you've given me the child u want. Please also send the one i want" !

Pretty cool actually :) - - - Did you eventually get a baby sister??

...As for me, the site actually showed what my name means (translated from Arabic) so I think it's not bad :p


   The kid after me's a guy. When the third kid turned out to be a guy(who in his younger years had a very feminine face), my dad names him "Babafemi".

Femi for short (pronounce Fare Me).

Baba - Father/Daddy, in this case referring to God

Fe - The verb "to want"

Mi - "me as in the pronoun"

Babafemi - God wants me. In other words, God wants me to be a guy, not a girl like the human father wanted.

    My mom's late now and pops hasn't remarried so no, no younger sister. But I do have people my dad literally treats like they were my blood sisters. I mean, like unnoficial adoption.

See OP's description. Though my name is spelled Adriane (The correct way). I already new my name's origin, but I'm surprised the rest of the description from the website was so accurate. Like 99% accurate.



I am the Playstation Avenger.
