Not sure if that would have been possible for the OP but maybe he/she could have tried to match the incoming names to a known-database of Kenyan names, like a Kenyan phone-book or something?
I had a similar problem to solve in one of my personal projects when I wanted to put on a map the buildings nationalised just after WW2 by the communist regime from my country, buildings which belonged to Jewish citizens. I had a big list of nationalised buildings with a name attached to each of them, I needed to know if that name was Jewish or not. In order to do that I just matched that list of names to the list of names from Yad Vashem [1], list which contains only Jewish names.
