Abayomi, Ibironke or Lewa?

Hiya there. Our favourite is Abayomi (we like the meaning) but does Lewa work better in England. I am also struggling to let go of Ibironke.

Thank you

Abayomi is cool, I haven't seen it before but I like it. I'd pronounce it "ah-bah-YO-mee", is that right? Think it would work fine in England.

I like Abayomi best !

Abayomi

Are they pronounced as they are written. If so I like Abayomi best. I'm not sure how I would say Ibironke and Lewa is fine I just like the first one better.

Is it Yoruba names you're looking for in particular?
Abiola is similar to Abayomi, either could be shortened to Abi.
Ayomide also has a lovely meaning.

Abayome from me Smile

Lewa gets my vote Smile

Abayomi is beautiful!

Abayomi here too.

I like Abayomi and Lewa and think they would both work in the UK.

Abayomi is easy to pronounce, so I can't see it being a problem!
