Meaning of Olawale

Pronounced oh-lah-WAH-leh (/oʊˈlɑːwəle/), Olawale bursts onto the scene with the warmth of a sunrise, its Yoruba roots glowing bright as it literally means “wealth has come home.” With each syllable, it welcomes prosperity like a long-lost friend slipping in through the door, suitcase brimming with blessings. Families delight in its lyrical promise, imagining a little one whose life overflows with generosity and abundance.
