I know this wasn’t what you were asking about, but are you sure you’re set on [name]Kyrie[/name]? I can see the appeal of a cute-sounding name like this for a baby but I don’t think this name will age well or serve her well as an adult or professional. You have some nice choices on your middle name list, especially [name]Rosalie[/name] - perhaps you would consider something more in that style in the first name spot instead? I think the best option would probably be to try and find something more sophisticated as a full name but with a cute nn that you could use while she’s a child. Working off the sounds in [name]Kyrie[/name], I’m thinking [name]Keira[/name] might be a great option for you.
I’m honestly not trying to be rude here – I was just wondering if you knew that ‘[name]Kyrie[/name]’ means ‘lord’ or ‘sir’ and is used as a male title (like Mr) in Greece?
[name]Kyria[/name] (kirria) is the female form and it means ‘lady’. I have a 3rd cousin with this name. I personally prefer it to [name]Kyrie[/name] because of the meaning and sound. You could use [name]Kyrie[/name] as a nickname for [name]Kyria[/name].
[name]Do[/name] you intend to pronounce it k-eye-ree or kee-ree-eh as in the [name]Kyrie[/name] Eleison? If it’s the latter then, yes, it means Mister (or [name]Lord[/name]) in Greek and it’s a church hymn.
There is a game my boyfriend used to play and there is a character named [name]Kairi[/name] (K-eye-ree)… I always thought it was a nice name. They said it means “sea”.
I am not set on the name… it is one of the many that I am considering. I’m aware that it means “The [name]Lord[/name]” but the name however is ambiguous. I know a girl named [name]Kyrie[/name], and I think that it is a beautiful name for a boy or a girl.
I grew up with a girl named [name]Kyrie[/name]. Teachers in school, and other students, had a really hard time pronouncing her name, for all the years I knew her. Nevertheless, she really liked her name and was proud of it. For me, it was never difficult, because I’d heard the word in church my whole life. I think that it depends on the area where you live, and the religious background of most people, as to whether people will be able to pronounce it correctly or not most of the time. I would also say that with the current trend of [name]Kyra[/name], [name]Kylee[/name], [name]Kyla[/name], etc. (all pronounced k-eye), it will make mispronunciations even more common. That said, I voted for [name]Kyrie[/name] [name]Isabelle[/name].
