Taiye

Taiye is a masculine name with roots in the West African—particularly Nigerian—language of Yoruba. A variant of the name Taiwo or Táíwò, it translates to “first born of twins” or “first twin to taste the world.” This can be a great choice if you’re welcoming two bundles of joy into your family. Some popular bearers of this name include writer Taiye Selasi and poet Ojo Taiye. If you want to inspire your little one’s creative spirit and love for words, Taiye can do the job.
