"Ika" meaning in Yoruba

See Ika in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Proper name

IPA: /ì.ká/ Forms: Ìká [canonical]
Etymology: Cognate across Volta-Niger, where it the term has remained relatively constant across all the languages, making it potentially possible to reconstruct the root all the way to Proto-Volta-Niger, (see Proto-Volta-Niger *-ká). Cognate with Igala Ẹ̀ká, Itsekiri Ẹ̀ká ultimately derived from Proto-Yoruboid *ɛ̀-ká, see there for more cognates.
