    In this episode of Kilasi Omoluabi, we ask a simple but powerful question: What’s in a name? Spoiler: for the Yorubas, everything!

    Naming a child isn’t random, it’s revelation. It’s prayer, history, identity and prophecy.

    Join us as we explore the beautiful, thoughtful, and deeply cultural concepts the Yoruba people consider before naming a child: family lineage, spiritual significance, circumstances surrounding birth, hopes for the future, and the unspoken power names carry in shaping destiny.
