Kenyan celebrities whose kids have unique names

For the longest time, majority of Kenyan parents have been giving their kids ordinary, simple and flat names like John, Paul, Grace, Alice, Faith etc, but nowadays tables have turned and parents know better.

Children are now given unique, surprising and queer names that some of us didn’t even know existed. Apart from Google’s help, one can make a name from anything. Like who would have ever thought that North and West could make a name?

When Jay Z and Beyonce named their child Blue Ivy, it came as a shock to many since it was an unusual name. Other names that also raised eyebrows in Hollywood were names like, Gravity, Pilot Inspektor, and Sunday Molly.

Our very own Kenyan Celebrities have not been left behind in giving their babies unique names, though some have been assumed to be extra with the naming.
