Name choices are Naila (meaning the successful one) and Nubia (golden), Aisha (lifetime) and Amira (princess) or Kenya (little queen) and Zaila (female). The two are daughters of the male Iduma, from South Africa, and the female Erindi, from the Netherlands, who also live at the zoo. They are the couple's first children.
Lioness Erindi has been considerate and protective of the cubs, according to the Zoo's press office. According to the source, Iduma tried to take care of the offspring soon after birth, but for being "very playful and somewhat clumsy, as a safety measure, he had to be separated from his family by some time".
