  1. She’s our third daughter. We chose this name because her last name is River, and it sounds nice: Kaya River. We thought first the name Maya, but her two sister’s names starts with the letter K: Kylie and Kate and mine too

  2. I was named Kaya because my clan Lord was Kaya and he was very wealthy and a Lord of rain and Sun as well as the owner of the clan was he, in a certain district in South Sudan. But Kaya in the KUKU language in South Sudan is a vocabulary to mean plenteous. Hence something plenty ?

  3. My business name is called Kaya Tours Ghana Limited an amazing travel and tours company doing wonderfully great in the travel trade business.

    In Ghana ?? Kaya means a concierge, a helper , a dependable and trusted person

    • Kaya is slang for marijuana in Jamaica. However, Bob was a very wise and filled with peace and love. He used marijuana as one of many tools to be in touch with God and find serenity. Kaya means peaceful/restful place. In the song he speaking of the need for Kaya. I believe he smoked for the peace and serenity and that is what the song is about . To him, marijuana was a big tool to help him reach it .

    • Lol my name is kaya I’m 10 yrs

  7. My elder sister…. it refers to someone who is wise beyond her years. I found this to be a special meaning for my special girl!

  8. Husband is fiiippino and it means “I can” in Tagalog.
