A University of Ibadan (UI) pharmacy student has taken social media by storm, not just for his achievements but for his unusual and unique name.
The 400-level student, who is also a mixologist, recently won two awards at his department’s event—Socialite of the Year and Best Dressed (Male, 400 Level).
Celebrating his wins, he shared a post on X (formerly Twitter) displaying his awards, which boldly bore his full name, ‘Will John Flourish.’
Accompanying the post, he wrote: “What a nightt🖤💯.”
His tweet quickly went viral, amassing over 856k views, 500+ likes, and more than a hundred comments. While many congratulated him, others were more fascinated by his name, sparking discussions online.
Some netizens suggested that he rearrange his full name to form a positive affirmation, while others jokingly said his name felt incomplete without a question mark.
Despite the buzz, Will John Flourish appeared unbothered, responding playfully to the comments and embracing the attention his name had drawn.
