However living in the west ,people use their ignorance to belittle this pride in names and use as a way to screen africans in every aspect of society .
Why do you think there's a belittling of naming culture going on (assuming you're talking specifically about when applicants (jobs, AirBnB) are excluded based on their (first) names)? Isn't it just that names are used as a trigger for racism?

yoruba naming ceremony and Yoruba names hold a significant value and meaning .Being half Yoruba your name is your totem and sets you on your path.Like many African cultures are very similar in this .
