This theory has been in my head before Kaido even revealed Yamato.
Kaido was expecting to see Oden reflected in Momonosuke. Instead what he saw was a weak cry baby who was not worthy of his name. So much so that he did not care enough to kill him. Kaido's parenting style is very similar to Garp's. In his own way, he's trying to mold his child to be the person he wants him to be. But like Momonosuke, Yamato disappointed him.
So here's the theory...
Kaido is truly one of a kind, his crew is filled with imitations. Numbers who are failed experiments of ancient giants. Gifters who are imperfect versions of zoan users. Pleasures who couldn't even get the imperfect powers.
Kaido had two children. Twins to be exact. One son and one daughter, born from a union of an Oni and a human. Kaido's son, the original Yamato looked exactly like him. He was every thing Kaido wanted in a son, the other was a girl who looked exactly like the mother. Although she was also an Oni, she was nothing compared to her brother. Kaido didn't even bother giving her a name, instead she took on the pseudonym 'Oni Princess'.
Yamato showed potential. Unlocked CoC while he was a baby, he was ruthless and showed alot of promise. Kaido decided to take his son on a raid, which unfortunately led to his death.
Kaido couldn't except his son's death. He couldn't understand how his son, who was like him could die from a simple raid. He developed a habit of trying to take his life which always failed. He started drinking heavily to deal with his memories.
Kaido decided to replace his dead son with his only remaining offspring. The oni princess. He gave her the name Yamato and referred to her as his son. Yamato unlike her brother was never allowed to leave Onigashima.
This would explain Yamato's identity issues, why Kaido and everyone else refers to her as Kaido's son, his treatment of her. Kaido's obsessive drinking and his hobby of trying to kill himself.
