When was Aiko’s Daughter Born?
During her time at West Los Angeles College, Aiko, then 20, gave birth to her daughter, Namiko Love Browner. When she discovered she was pregnant, the singer began taking vocal lessons. Aiko confessed to CR Fashion Book how she was resolved to transform her life after learning of her pregnancy.
“I had no intention of having a kid so young.” But as soon as I found out I was pregnant, I was flooded with fresh energy and motivation. I knew I didn’t want a traditional job. I wanted to build a better life for myself and my kid.”
The 13-year-old celebrity child’s father is singer O’Ryan, who is Omarion’s younger brother. Jhene Aiko and O’Ryan dated from 2005 to 2008 before splitting up for unexplained reasons.

“I’m not with my daughter’s father, but I’m fortunate to have a huge and supportive family that loves and cares for my kid every day while I’m away on tour.”
On Instagram, the singer is often seen posting photos of herself and her baby. Sing to Me, a song from Aiko’s album Trip, was also performed by the pair for VH1’s annual event Dear Mama: A Love Letter to Moms in 2018.
