I've never heard of, let alone met people with, many of these names. Kenyatta, Jael, Gentry, Aven, Daylin.

- lacampbell 7y agoPresumably named after Jomo Kenyatta, who was Kenyas first president in the 60s and 70s. I can't really tell you why that name took off, maybe due to some of these Americans, who were presumably named after the Kenyan president? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kenyatta_(given_name) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kenyatta_(given_name)
- cossray 7y agoJust for your information : Kenya’s 1st and current (4th) presidents are named Kenyatta. But they're the source of that name, anyway.

- cossray 7y agoIf you are the first man to use a name, it matters less where you decide to put it, first or last.
- weare138 7y agoI've heard those names before or variations of them but the one that threw me off was Kirby as a girls name. I can honestly say I've never met/read/heard of a woman named Kirby.
