I’m debating other spellings and if other spellings would be pronounced correctly.
Would you pronounce one spelling differently than others, or would they all be pronounced the same?
[name_m]Kian[/name_m], [name_m]Cian[/name_m]?
I’ve had people pronounce [name_m]Kian[/name_m] every way other than “KEE-en” (K-[name_m]Ian[/name_m]). ([name_u]North[/name_u] [name_u]America[/name_u]).
I pronounce it Kee-An and spelt Cían. I know a kid [name_m]Cian[/name_m] who pronounces is [name_f]Ki[/name_f]-An like [name_u]Ryan[/name_u] with a K
I think [name_m]Kian[/name_m] is the more intuitive spelling. [name_m]Cian[/name_m] might get “cayenne” 
I think it’s supposed to be Kee-en but I still see and sometimes say kai-ann in my head while looking at it.
Kian or [name_m]Keyan[/name_m] would be more intuitive. [name_m]Cian[/name_m] looks like [name_u]Cyan[/name_u] to me. Pronounced like… Scion?
I agree [name_m]Kian[/name_m] is the more intuitive spelling for this name, but I can understand the appeal of [name_m]Cian[/name_m].
I’ve been using the ‘K’ spelling, but getting frustrated that people don’t pronounce it correctly.
I love this name! I like the [name_m]Cian[/name_m] spelling and pronounce it Kee-an but I also heard and saw this name at the same time so I can’t say if I would’ve gotten it on my own. I personally don’t care for the [name_m]Kian[/name_m] spelling, even if it is more intuitive (but I’m a [name_f]Catherine[/name_f], so I’m partial to a C!) Plus I know a Kee-on spelled [name_m]Kian[/name_m].
I honestly don’t think the [name_m]Cian[/name_m] spelling will be too difficult with the rise in popularity of Irish names and the uniqueness of some baby names nowadays. He may have to spell it occasionally or say “[name_m]Cian[/name_m] with a C,” but again, as a [name_f]Catherine[/name_f], it’s totally worth the minor corrections to have my name spelled the way it is. I love it! I say go with what you like the best and everything will work out 
best of luck deciding!
Cian like cyan
Kian like [name_m]Ian[/name_m] with a K in front
So, differently
Maybe [name_m]Keyan[/name_m] or Keeyan? To help get the pronunciation right. 
I’d pronounce both [name_m]Kian[/name_m] and [name_m]Cian[/name_m] as Kee-en. [name_m]Kian[/name_m] feels the most straightforward
I say [name_m]Kian[/name_m] and [name_m]Cian[/name_m] as ‘kee-uhn’. If [name_m]Kian[/name_m] isn’t getting you the pronunciation you want, I highly doubt [name_m]Cian[/name_m] will.
I pronounce both [name_m]Kian[/name_m] and [name_m]Cian[/name_m] as kee-un.
I’ve know people with both spellings both pronounced ‘Kee-an’.
My Irish and Scottish colleagues have an Irish and Scottish [name_m]Cian[/name_m] (lovely name!) and they say it “KEE-un.”
Cian is an Irish name. The Celts are not known for their intuitive spelling. but they are known for their gorgeous names.
Kian or [name_m]Keyan[/name_m] are totally different names than [name_m]Cian[/name_m].
I pronounce them both like “kee-in”, but can see people saying something like “cayenne” for [name_m]Cian[/name_m].
I’m sure I’m pronouncing both wrong but I would pronounce [name_m]Cian[/name_m] as Sigh-an (like [name_u]Cyan[/name_u]) and [name_m]Kian[/name_m] as [name_u]Kai[/name_u]-an. I wouldn’t pronounce either as Kee-an unless corrected. (For context, I’m Canadian.)
I’d pronounce it like the pepper
I’d say KEE-un for both.
But honestly, I think [name_m]Kian[/name_m] is less ambiguous to those who aren’t familiar with the Irish name. I’d expect some people to read [name_m]Cian[/name_m] with an S sound at the start, rather than a hard K.
The [name_m]Keyan[/name_m] spelling might work, but you might get KAY-an. What about [name_u]Keenan[/name_u] or [name_u]Keegan[/name_u]?
KEE-un for me, like [name_m]Ian[/name_m] with a K sound on the front
