Former tennis pro Lindsay Davenport and husband Jonathan Leach welcome new daughter Kaya Emory Leach! The baby was born on January 16, but Davenport just announced the name via Twitter yesterday, tweeting, "Thanks for all the messages. Everyone is great. We named her Kaya Emory Leach..although not sure if we are going to call her Kaya or Emory." Kaya Emory will be joining big sister Lauren Andrus, who is 2, and big brother Jagger Jonathan, 4.

The name Kaya jumped on to the popularity charts in 2003, ranking the 542nd most popular female baby name, but peaked in 2004 at 539 and has been declining since then. It's likely that the sudden popularity of the name had to do with the introduction in 2002 of the Kaya American Girl doll.
