Father of four children, the singer chose an adorable first name of Arabic origin for his daughter born in 2007 and even dedicated a song to her. Since then, this feminine first name has enjoyed great success with parents, and has climbed into the ranking of the most trendy first names in 2024.
Certain first names experience dazzling success when they are chosen by personalities we appreciate. Indeed, future and young parents often let themselves be influenced by current events, or by first names worn by actors or singers of the moment when choosing their child’s first name. This time, it’s the one from Soprano’s daughter that seems to please. Father of 4 children, including one he had as a teenager and whom he never knew, the singer fell for the first name Inaya for his daughter born in July 2007. As for his other children Luna and Lenny, the Marseille rapper dedicated a song to him, in which he reveals his happiness at being a father and the sacrifices he is ready to make to raise him in the best conditions.
Since the birth of her daughter and the release of the song “Inaya”, this female first name of Arabic origin, meaning “concern and attention” has climbed the statistics level. We recorded 86 births in 2007, 234 Inaya in 2028, and “two years later, the first name crossed the symbolic bar of 1000 annual allocations” confirms the Official First Names (First editions). In 2022, there are now 1,883 little girls with this first name.
And that’s not all: Inaya even enters the top 20 of the most trendy first names in 2024, placing itself in 18th position in the ranking. Inaya’s choice of his daughter’s first name and the song he dedicated to her are not the only reason for this success. “This original first name plays on the trend of “ia” endings and juxtapositions of vowels“, explain the authors of the book Stéphanie Rapoport and Claire Tabarly Perrin who add that this first name has established itself, for the first time in 2020, among the most popular first names in the capital (in the top 50).
