Which animals have adopted these celeb names? Stormzy, Kai Havertz, Harry Styles, Meghan Markle and Marcus Rashford

Stormzy, the Soay lamb, made a shock appearance during the height of Storm Isha

A lamb born during Storm Isha has been named Stormzy after the UK rapper, singer and songwriter.

His keepers, Jamie and Michelle Mintram, run ARK Wildlife & Dinosaur Park at Stickney and said they found the rare Soay lamb cold and alone in a field out in the storm.

Staff had no idea Stormzy's mother was pregnant but believe she was probably frightened by the high winds and ran off.

The new-born lamb was a pleasant surprise for everyone at the park, as there are only about 900 breeding female Soay left.

When Stormzy was first found, the keepers were worried about his chances of surviving, but after a few days of bottle-feeding he is now doing much better.

Mr Mintram said: "We managed to get food into him."

"It was only a few grams to start with but as each feed went on he seemed to get more and more strength."

It is hoped Stormzy will be able to head back outside again in a month.

Stormzy isn't alone when it comes to celebrities inspiring animal names either. Check out some of these other awesome animals named after famous people...

A donkey called Havertz

Kai the donkey enjoys a kick-about

This foal was named after Premier League footballer Kai Havertz, after being born at The Donkey Sanctuary in Sidmouth, Devon.

The charity decided to name the donkey after Havertz, after reading an article in which Kai said his teammates call him "donkey" because of his love of the sensitive and smart animals.

Kai Havertz said he was "delighted" to have a donkey named after him because they are "such incredible animals".

The aardvark named Dobby

Zookeepers at Chester Zoo were in a magical mood when they celebrated the birth of a baby aardvark for the first time in their 90-year history in January 2022.

The calf was named Dobby, after the Harry Potter character, because it reminded keepers of the popular elf.

It has large droopy ears, hairless wrinkled skin and giant claws.

Wonder if anyone bought it some socks for its birthday?

Marcus Rashford the beaver

Another animal with a footballing namesake is Marcus Rashford the beaver.

The kit was the first to be born on Exmoor for 400 years, and to celebrate the National Trust had a public vote to name it during England's 2021 Euros celebrations.

The name Rashford won, receiving 49.9% of the votes.

Wonder what its dribbling skills are like?

Meghan the okapi

London Zoo named this calf Meghan Markle, after Prince Harry's wife.

Meghan the okapi arrived in December 2018, and zookeepers say she's doing well.

An okapi is a member of the giraffe family with a shorter neck and zebra-like markings.

Harry Styles the seal

A rescued seal pup found stranded on a beach on the Wirral in 2017 was named after singer Harry Styles.

The animal was rescued by the RSPCA who said :"We were able to get him to our specialist wildlife centre at RSPCA Stapeley Grange, in Cheshire, where he's been receiving expert treatment."

Let's hope he doesn't try to swim in the wrong Direction again!
