DH loves this name - I do too but having already given DD an unusual name I am worried about spending the next 5 years, spelling, explaining, repeating etc, and then her spening the following 75 doing the same.
It is a Swahili name and we are not east African but I did grow up there - bit of a tenuous link maybe? Although does that matter?
