<\/a>Simi Shares Honest Feelings About Fans Nicknaming Her Daughter \u2018Duduke\u2019<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n Nigerian singer and songwriter Simisola Kosoko<\/strong>, popularly known as Simi<\/strong><\/a>, is setting the record straight about a nickname fans have lovingly attached to her daughter, Deja<\/strong>.<\/p>\n
In a recent interview, the award-winning artist opened up about her discomfort with fans calling her daughter \u201cDuduke\u201d a reference to her 2020 hit single released during her pregnancy.<\/p>\n
While Simi<\/strong> acknowledged that the nickname stems from a place of love and admiration, she admitted it doesn\u2019t sit well with her. \u201cPeople call her \u2018Duduke\u2019 because of the song, and I know it comes from a good place, so I don\u2019t overreact,\u201d she shared. \u201cBut personally, I don\u2019t like it because my daughter has a name.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n
Simi emphasized the importance of honoring Deja\u2019s identity, explaining that while Duduke<\/em> holds emotional value as a song, it was never meant to become a personal label for her child.<\/p>\n
She also clarified that \u201cDuduke\u201d simply refers to the gentle rhythm of a heartbeat or drumbeat \u2014 a symbolic sound used in the song to express the joy of motherhood, not a nickname.<\/p>\n
Released at the height of her pregnancy, Duduke<\/em> quickly became a beloved anthem for expectant mothers and fans alike. But for Simi, Deja deserves to grow into her own name \u2014 not one borrowed from a melody.<\/p>\n
