The nickname, widely adopted after Simi’s 2020 hit single “Duduke”—released in anticipation of her child’s birth—was simply an onomatopoeia symbolizing her heartbeat, not a name with actual meaning.

In a conversation with VJ Adams, Simi explained that while she knows the term comes from a place of affection, she’s not fond of people calling her daughter by it.

“It doesn’t even mean anything. It’s just a beat—‘duduke duduke’—that’s what I meant,” she said.

“Stop calling my child Duduke [laughs]. But I get it. It’s coming from a good place.”

Simi added that if the word had a positive or real meaning, she might have embraced it, but she prefers people to use her daughter’s actual name.
