Iwin basically refers to spirits which dwell on land, usually in thick forests. However, they do make themselves visible to people like hunters, herbalists, etc who have some supernatural powers. Sometimes, these people call on the services of these spirits to fight some deadly animals or other deadly spirits in times of danger. Iwíndàpọ̀ will, therefore, be a name that a hunter, or a herbalist who had survived a battle in some forest, or on a journey, or on an assignment with the help from spirits, will name their child.
