Hermes Iyele Opens Up On Controversy Surrounding His Name

Evicted Big Brother Naija ‘Level Up Hermes Chibueze Iyele, has opened up on the meaning of his name and the alleged controversies surrounding his name.

Hermes Iyele who was ousted at the semi-finals of the reality show claimed that he and his brothers were given godly names.

He proclaimed that the name “Hermes” was given to him by his father at birth and not a stage name. In the religion and mythology of ancient Greece, Hermes is an Olympian deity. The gods’ herald is thought to be Hermes.

He is also regarded as the guardian of human messengers, travelers, thieves, businesspeople, and orators.

“My father named us four after gods. My two brothers are Akhnaton and Kuthumi, while my sister is Isis. Hermes is my real name,” he said.

With the aid of his winged sandals, he can travel swiftly and freely between the mortal and divine realms.

He also spoke about his girlfriends and his love life.

In a recent interview, she said, “Knowing Hermes had two girlfriends, I respected his dynamic (circumstance) while in the house. However, upon coming out of the house now, I know that I don’t want to be a part of that dynamic (situation) but I have a genuine connection with him. I want to focus on myself. Hermes has a beautiful, intense and dramatic personality.

I always go for people that are very different. He even physically stands out with his tattoos and piercings. We are both creative people. He is very talented and I know we are going to be great friends for a very long time.”
