What is the meaning of the name Olufunmito ?

The baby name Olufunmito is a Unisex name , 5 syllables long and is pronounced oh-loo-FOON-mee-toh.

Olufunmito is Yoruba in Origin.

Olufunmito is a Yoruba given name from southwestern Nigeria, built from Olú/Olúwa (“the Lord, God”), fún (“gives”), mí (“me”), and tó (“enough/sufficient”). It conveys “The Lord has given me enough” or “God’s gift is sufficient for me,” a sentiment of gratitude and contentment. Common short forms are Funmito and Funmi; Olu appears as a familiar nickname. Related variants include Oluwafunmito (fully theophoric) and Olufunmi.

In Yoruba communities the name has long marked safe delivery after difficulty, the close of a lean period, or a declaration of providential sufficiency. It is broadly unisex and used across faiths, since Oluwa functions as a general title for God in both Christian and traditional settings. With 20th‑century migration, Olufunmito traveled to Ghana, Benin, the United Kingdom, and North America; diacritics are typically dropped in English contexts, but the meaning remains central.
