AnswerOlu Dara was the name of a jazz trumpeter, Although he didn't record under his own name until 1998, Olu Dara enjoyed a reputation as one of the jazz avant-garde's leading trumpeters from the mid-'70s on. He changed his name to the Yoruba Olu Dara in the late 60'sThe word/name Olu in Yoruba means "Almighty God"; Dara alone, I am not positive is a Yoruba word in origin, however there is a Yoruba name of Oluwadara- which means "God is Good". Or it could be an amalgamation of two different languages in which I am familiar with Dara meaning wisdom, in a few languages.Dara is definitely a Yoruba word and it means good...in fact the abbreviated form of the name Oluwadara is mostly Dara
