Tunde

Tunde is a unisex name, originally a diminutive form of a Yoruba name for a native of Nigeria which also means "returns". Hence, when Tunde is combined with other Yoruba words such as Baba (father) or Yeye/Iya/Mama (mother) to form Babatunde and Yetunde respectively, the meaning becomes Father or Mother has returned. However, "Omo" (Son) can be added to Tunde which means "Son has returned ". If the vowel 'U' appears as 'Ü', Tünde might refer to the Hungarian female given name, derived from the Hungarian word 'tündér' meaning "fairy". ‘Ola’ (wealth) can be added to Tunde which means ‘Wealth has returned.’
