iGoola is pronounced as i-goo-lah, “i” like in ice, “goo” like in good. Goola is a stylised spelling of “gula”, the Nyanja word for "buy".
The "i" refers to "
internet" as well as the pronoun "I". So you can think of iGoola as "online/
internet shopper" and also "I buy". Altogether, it encompasses the
words "I'm an online shopper".
