The unique giraffe without any spots now has an official name - “Kipekee”, which means ‘Unique’ in Swahili! Thanks to the overwhelming participation, the zoo received over 40,000 votes, and Kipekee emerged victorious by a clear margin of 6,000 votes.

The Naming Journey: The Bright family has always been dedicated to finding meaningful names. Staying true to their tradition of choosing Swahili names for giraffes, they sifted through hundreds of options. They finally shortlisted four names: Kipekee, Firyali, Shakiri, and Jamella. Instead of making the decision themselves, they turned to the public for a final verdict.
