Iremisola is Yoruba in Origin.

Iremisola is a Yoruba given name from southwestern Nigeria, built from ire “goodness, blessing,” mi “my,” and si ọlá/ṣọlá “toward honor/into wealth.” It conveys the hopeful message “my blessings have turned to honor” or “my good fortune leads to wealth and distinction.” As with many Yoruba names, it encapsulates parental gratitude and aspirations for a child’s life path.

Usage is rooted in Yoruba naming customs, where meaningful theophoric and virtue names mark birth circumstances and future hopes. Iremisola is unisex, though contemporary use often skews female, and it appears across the Nigerian diaspora in the UK, North America, and beyond while remaining rare outside Yoruba circles. Spelling variants include Iremisọla and the fully marked form Ìrẹ̀mí sí Ọlá/Ìrẹ̀míṣọlá; short forms and affectionate diminutives include Iremi, Misola, and Sola. Related cognates built on ire include Iremide (“my blessing has arrived”) and Ireoluwa (“the goodness of God”).
