Then, I also have a Muslim name, Aishat, given to me by my mother, who was a Muslim. Also, some from my mother's family members also named me Sekinat. Even my daughter's name is Rufaidat. So, I grew with the two religions. And being the only child of my parents, I was given so many names, including Egandogo, Omosolape, Akanke.
