Meaning:Traditional ornamental belt; White mountain
Kenyada is a feminine name of American creation. A variant of Kenyatta, this name refers to the ornamental belt that’s traditionally worn in Kenya’s Maasai community. For a fun fact, this name can also come from the first president of Kenya, Jomo Kenyatta. He is said to have adopted the name from the beaded belt he wore as a child. For an extra touch, Kenyada can also come from the phrase kere nyaga in Kenyan Kikuyu language, meaning “white mountain.” If you’re looking for a name that helps your little one connect to their East African roots, Kenyatta can reach the highest of heights.
