Etymology
While the beginning of the phrase translates literally to "it has started," there is no consensus on the second part of the phrase, "my kiki."
Although the word "kiki" in slang can refer to the male sexual organ, the phrase as a whole does not have sexual connotations, and is not taken as vulgar.
Various internet discussion boards suggest that "kiki" is simply a cute rhyme for "parti," since the phrase "C'est parti" can exist on its own without changing the meaning of the full phrase.
Others maintain that the addition of "mon kiki" to the phrase was thanks to the popularity of Monchhichi, a Japanese toy sold globally in the late 1970s and beyond, which was sold under the name "Kiki" in France.
