Meaning of this name is unknown.

Stephen Ogunbiyi says: A name originating among the Yoruba of Nigeria before it was exported via the slave trade to Cuba and the Carribbean, òrìṣà is the name of the gods of the Yoruba, Santeria, and Candomble pantheon. The deities or òrìṣà are similar to that of the greek gods. The word of òrìṣà means chosen head or chosen destiny, because the orí is regarded as the center of the human soul, conscience, destiny, and fate.
