1️⃣ What’s in a name? ‘KiKi’ isn’t as simple as it looks.
At first glance, the name KiKi might seem playful and light.
But according to their label, it’s packed with layered meaning.
> “Kiki, like the sound of giggling in Korean (‘kideuk-kideuk’),
it evokes a sense of friendly, approachable energy.
And like ‘kick’, it has punch and charisma.” – Agency representative
It’s the kind of name that instantly lifts your mood
and sticks in your head long after you hear it.
