These types of names are not unique to any group in the world

We can sometimes bear weird, awkward or outright funny names. These types of names are not unique to any group in the world as every ethnicity has its own share of them. Even some English names are funny and awkward. I've seen my own fair share of some of these types of names across various Nigerian ethnic groups. Some are first names but most are surnames. Let's have some fun and list some of these names we have come across or heard of. If your name happens to turn up, please don't take it personally. This is just for fun so when you see yours, just return the favour and post another name that fits into what we are looking for .

So to all now, what are some of the most awkward, weirdest or outright funny names you've come across or heard of in your language/dialect? Please translate to English as you list them.

Let me start by mentioning some in Urhobo language :
1. Oronimighwu: My community wants me to die 
2. Idjigherekpeki: Bicycle went to market
3. Ogbajiriemu: Strong man still eats food
4. Omitimidaka: Cassava girl
5. Ukpubeku: Big Bone
