10 Cute and Romantic Yoruba Words You Can Use As Pet Name For Lovely Wife or Bae

Love is a beautiful thing. Love Cares, Love is interesting and Love conquers all.

''Love is the only substance that can melt an iron''

 We may advise everyone to be sure they want a real relationship before going into one, but having someone who is always there for you makes life so much easier and beautiful. If you have a “babe” or a bobo, the norm is to give them sweet nicknames like honey, sweetie, angel, Pretty, Finest, sugar boo and the like.

If you’re someone who doesn’t like the conventional pet names out there, here are some romantic Yoruba words you can use as a pet name for your other half:


1. Ife mi

This means “my love” and can be used for both a bobo and sisi.

8. Olowo ori mi

Ladies, thrill your man by calling him “olowo ori mi”. You’re basically calling him the one who paid your brideprice aka husband. If you call your boyfriend this, he will just take the hint!
