Meaning:
A child is family; Born at the right time
Baby was certainly born at the perfect time, so why not give them a name to express your joy that they are in your family? Omolara is a feminine name of Yoruba origin. The Yoruba people are predominantly found in West Africa, specifically Nigeria, Benin, and Togo, and constitute more than 52 million people in Africa. Made of the elements ọmọ, meaning “child,” ni, meaning “is,” and ará, meaning “kin” or “family,” Omolara means “a child is family” or “born at the right time,” and perfectly demonstrates the emphasis that many African cultures put on togetherness and familial structures. Baby will feel like they belong from the moment you first say their new name!
