Yorùbá Names Lexicography Initiative -- also called "Yorùbá Names Project" -- is a Nigerian non-profit working to support the revitalization of Nigerian languages using technology, archiving, lexicography, and advocacy. Its most notable projects are YorubaName.com and IgboNames.com (dictionary of Yorùbá and Igbo names respectively), YorubaVoice.com (a project to create an audio corpus in Yorùbá), and YorubaWord.com, a monolingual dictionary of Yorùbá. Founded by Nigerian linguist Kọ́lá Túbọ̀sún, it is supported by a team of linguists, scholars, language advocates, and software developer volunteers in many languages.
