Answer 1

No but if that's what you lke go for it just make sure when their older they don't get made fun of.

Allow me to help you with the name "Kenya", it has some very impressive origin's.:

The Republic of Kenya is a country in East Africa. It is bordered by Ethiopia to the north, Somalia to the northeast, Tanzania to the south, Uganda to the west, and Sudan to the northwest, with the Indian ocean running along the southeast border. The country is named after Mount Kenya, a very significant landmark and the second highest mountain in Africa,[3][4] and both were originally usually pronounced [ˈkiːnjə][5] in English although the native pronunciation and the one intended by the original transcription Kenia was [ˈkenia]

Answer 2

Kenya is not a common noun, it is a proper noun. A proper noun is:

• The name of a person
• The name of a place
• The name of a thing
• A title
• Your name

The noun Kenya is the name of a place, and sometimes the name of a person.
