Diamond Platnumz’s sister, Esma Platnumz, has revealed how Zuchu settled on the name Sandrah for her daughter with Diamond Platnumz, saying the name had been chosen long before the baby was born.
Esma explained that Zuchu had already decided on the name Sandrah when she was only a few weeks pregnant. She said the family had settled on the name in case the baby turned out to be a girl, while they had not decided on a name for a boy.
“So Sandrah yes, mwisho ina h. Mama mtu alipokuwa na mimba tu,ya wiki, alisema kama nitapata mtoto wa kike, nitamuita Sandrah. Na kama wa kiume..ya kiume alikua kama hajui atapata wa kiume,” Esma Platnumz said on Sunday, September 13, 2026.
According to Esma, the decision was also supported by the baby’s father, Diamond. She said that Zuchu had already known she wanted a girl and had the name in mind before the child was born.
“Alikua anjua tu wa kike. Eh alilitaka yeye na baba mtu. Na Zuchu alilitaka alisema mtoto wake wa kike lazima akue na jina ya bibi yake,” Esma Platnumz explained.

Zuchu’s mother, Khadija Kopa, had earlier unveiled the newborn’s official name on Saturday, September 12, 2026, during the opening celebrations of her daughter’s 40-day ceremony. She shared the details after receiving an envelope containing the child’s birth certificate.
