Etymology: Proposed to be derived from Proto-Yoruboid *á-ká. Cognate with Igbo aka (“arm/hand”), Nupe ekpá (“shoulder”), Olukumi áká (“shoulder, wing”), Igala íká (“wing”), possibly a Doublet of èjìká. The root is reconstructed to Proto-Niger-Congo *-ka (“hand”), where it is believed to have held the meaning "five." See Defaka ápá as well.
