The name has been used as both a given name and a surname throughout history, with notable figures such as John F. Kennedy bringing it to the forefront of public consciousness. In literature, Kenne appears in Sir Walter Scott's novel 'The Antiquary,' further enriching its historic significance.
"Kenne is quite uncommon, with only 6 babies given this name each in 1959 and again in 1988, totaling just 12 children named Kenne over those two years."
