The name "Shamu" is actually a stage name shared by many adult orcas at SeaWorld. The first Shamu, a female, was captured in Puget Sound in 1965 and died on August 23, 1971.
The history of Baby Shamu
The first Baby Shamu, born on September 26, 1985 and named Kalina, was the first-ever orca calf to thrive in captivity. (Ten orca calves had been born in captivity before 1985, but five were stillborn and the others all died within two months of their births.) The first Grandbaby Shamu, a male known as Keet, was born in February 1993 and the first Great Grandbaby Shamu, a female named Kalia, was born on December 21, 2004. The first ever calf to be born to captive-bred parents, a female named Halyn, was born on October 9, 2005. SeaWorld has trademarked the names Shamu, Namu, Ramu, and Kandu.
