Meaning of this name is unknown.
Sulaiman Itopa Aliyu says: Itopa is a name of "Ebira" origin which is both a land in kogi state of Nigeria and an ethnicity. It is given to both the male or female child, but mostly the male. Itopa is a contraction of "ita oyi pa" meaning a story to talk about lierally, or something worth telling. However, in itself it means "a story" or "news" in a sense. As a name however, it is culled from the broader philosophical context of - ehe vi itopa ana gbe re - which translates as "life is an (ongoing) story which we only glimpse", however, far from being a curse for a brief life, it is meant, as if in prayer, for the bearer to overcome the inevitable hardships they would encounter in life. In this sense, "wu va p'ita" which literally means "you will tell a story" suggests triumph at the end such that you'd have a story to tell in retrospect; after all, what is life itself but an aggregation of stories to tell.
