Congratulations to all those that will be moms in 2020. W bet you already know that choosing your baby's name is something that needs some research. Our parents probably never gave it much thought but things are now different and we know better.

You will want to give your baby a name that has a good meaning and also one that is not too common. If you are one of those who are looking for a unique baby name, do a background research first. You could do an online search to find out some cute and unique baby names and you will find lots of them. You can check some here.

In regards to that, as we come to the end of 2019, we have come up with a list of some of the most common baby names we heard this year, in Kenya. Well, if you still love these names or have a reason to give it to your baby, it's all on you. Even so, maybe it's time we became more creative and stop going by the wind. Sometimes simple is classy and you don't have to follow the masses.

Since the news of his passing, and with the arrival of his body in the country, the mourning for former Prime Minister Raila Odinga has been shaped by a blend of expressive national grief and deep-rooted cultural traditions. These customs, primarily from his Luo heritage, provide a framework for a communal expression of loss, honour, and farewell for a figure of his stature.
