I dont know if this dawned on you too. I was thinking recently, and do you know what came to my mind ? some names (althought they are YORUBA ) they have equivalent in English, that is words having the same spelings as the names however called in a different manner.Below are some examples of such -

Shade (Yoruba name) - Shade (English word)- Cover or shelter provided by interception by an object of the sun or its rays.

Dare (Yoruba name) - Dare (English word) - To be courageous or bold enough to do or try something

Dupe (Yoruba name) - Dupe (English word) - An easily deceived person/To deceive

Pls add yours too and lets see how far we can go on this
