Meaning & origin

Ademide is a Yoruba name that entered the U.S. naming landscape in 2011, reflecting the growing presence of Nigerian names in American culture. With a rank of 7,679 in 2025 and a 1-in-170,808 birth rate, it remains a rare but rising choice. The name reached its peak popularity in 2019, and its trajectory has been steadily climbing since 2013. Though not yet tied to any specific U.S. states, Ademide carries the strong meaning of 'the crown has arrived,' making it a name of cultural significance and distinction. Its rarity in the United States adds to its appeal for parents seeking a unique yet meaningful name.

Ademide is of Yoruba origin, derived from the elements 'ade' meaning 'crown' and 'mi' meaning 'has' or 'arrives', with 'de' as a suffix indicating arrival or possession. It is common among the Yoruba people of Nigeria and the African diaspora. The name gained modest usage in the United States starting in the 2010s.
