Kenya was around long before Kenyatta. The British colony of Kenya probably was, and I think Jomo Kenyatta might have been, named for Mt Kenya. On a side-note, I once read that "Jomo" was the sound of a knife being taken out of a sheath.

Other countries named for individual people:

Solomon Islands
Wallis and Futuna Islands (the Wallis part anyway)
Cook Islands
Pitcairn Islands
Falkland Islands
St Helena
St Christopher (and Nevis)
St Vincent
Bermuda (? - named after one Bermudez?)
Georgia (though only in English, Russian etc., not in its native form Sakartvelo)
Belize (? - said by some to be an alteration of Wallace)
St Pierre (and Miquelon)
Tristan da Cunha (an explorer?)
Northern Marianas (but who was Mariana, or was this a Spanish name after the Virgin Mary?)
[That's enough countries. - Ed.]
