Throughout the world, Kanak (Kanak , Kanaka , Canaque ) is a widespread mostly girly, but infrequently boy's given name. The forename Kanak is characteristic of India, where it is quite a common largely feminine, but seldom male name, Bangladesh, where it is quite a rare largely boy's, but uncommonly feminine name, and Kuwait, where it is quite a rare unisex name. Not in comparison with a country's population, it most frequently occurs in India, Bangladesh, and Indonesia. Much less frequently, Kanak is the last name as well as the forename.
