To the disappointment of almost the entire internet, the newborn baby gorilla at the Philadelphia Zoo will not be named Harambe. After initially announcing that the public would be participating in a naming contest for the gorilla, born to 21-year-old female Honi and 31-year-old male Motuba, the zoo eventually clarified that the keepers would be picking potential names and everyone else would be able to vote on them.
Harambe, of course, was a gorilla that was shot and killed at the Cincinnati Zoo when a small child fell into his enclosure. Since then, he has become a satirical cult hero on Twitter and the worldwide web via memes and even tribute songs, a phenomenon that forced the Cincinnati Zoo to shut down its Twitter account.
