Folake is a Yoruba name meaning "handle with honor" or "honor and care for her" — a wish for the child's gentle treatment.
Folake Akindele is a Nigerian fashion designer.
Folake does not currently appear in the US Social Security Administration's top 1,000 girls' names, so we don't publish a US rank or birth count for it. That says nothing about the name's standing elsewhere in the world — only that it sits outside the ranked US data we rely on.
In Pythagorean numerology the letters of Folake reduce to 5, The Seeker. This is a traditional interpretive system, not a factual claim about the name.
