Wealth arose/awoken to come.

Extended Meaning

User comment: "Olajide can also be Ọlájíǹde, that is, wealth/honour has resurrected. So wealth has returned or more explicitly wealth has resurrected. Like when you say Babájídé, a name given to a male child born after the death of a family elder indicating the late elder has returned. Babájídé can be read as Bába-Jíǹde, that is Baba has resurrected."
