Have a trend going, need opinions PLEASE! :)

Ms_Kristin

My husbands name is Jason, my name is Kristin, our first daughter is Jaiden, and were having another girl. I want another K name, but cannot make a decision what are your opinions on the following names: Kiira (Ky-ra), Kienna (Key-enna), Kainaan (Kay-nan)?

Ms_Kristin

blueberrysmom

No. just different. Trust me, it's no big deal. My name has a hyphen and a silent M!

Kierra or kiira

Jess510

Oppsss that wasn't an option.... KIRRA then

baileygoose

I think Kiira would ALWAYS be pronounced wrong.

blueberrysmom

@baileygoose How else would you pronounce it?

kcike812

Kiira but I like it spelled kyra or kienna

baileygoose

@blueberrysmom Ummm...see if i can try and spell this!
I wouldn't know if it was like Kyra (long I, or Tyra only with a K) or like Keara (like "ear")??
Make sense?
I've just never been a fan of names that people always have to correct them on the pronunciation...but that's just me
I mean I like the name a lot, just the spelling I think people wound pronounce it wrong. That's all. I actually really like all 3 choices. Think Kienna would be my fav!

blueberrysmom

@baileygoose Gotcha! I'm so used to people screwing up my name that I'm suspicious when they get it right!

nicoleok87

The two is make it look like a typo. I think she would have trouble with that her whole life.....just tryin to help!!:)

baileygoose

@blueberrysmom lol what is your first name??

blueberrysmom

@baileygoose Ka-Msiyara (ka see ya ra) 40 years of correcting people! :ar!

baileygoose

@blueberrysmom Ohhh wow. Yep, I wouldn't even know where to go with that! When I sounded it out though I totally had all of it except that silent M, that kicked my a**!

blueberrysmom

@baileygoose I know, right!

KrazymomofAdrian

Kienna I like Kiira but I think it would get mispronounced of misspelled often. I think Kyra would go over better.
@blueberrysmom silent m? Thats odd, what in the world is your name? And a hyphen?

KrazymomofAdrian

Funny enough I would have gotten that right @blueberrysmom

What is with the silent m Though?

blueberrysmom

@krazymomofadrian It's a great name when you're grown but when you're five it's pretty challenging. The Msiyara is from Tanzania (it means beautiful skin) and my folks added the Ka-. To answer your question in advance...nope, we're from Philly. Lol! :ar!

mommyof3tobe

@blueberrysmom I've never seen a silent m before interesting.
Someone did however tell me that in this name... D'jamilia the D is silent!! Lol
Its pronounced Jamilia.
@ms_Kristin kiira kinda looks like (kear-a) to me. I think thats cute too!

blueberrysmom

I think there are a lot of silent Ms in African languages. I think...

adriens_mommy

i love my best friends daughters name kiara (key R ah ) its so pretty

baby2ontheway

Kiira

KrazymomofAdrian

@blueberrysmom oooooohhhhh I see. It has culture to it. I though your mom was just crazy lol. I, like it though not a fan of hyphens in names.

blueberrysmom

Culture? That's cool except we're not from Tanzania so I think it's a little crazy. Plus, they can't show me the book where they found the name and i've even asked people from there and they've never heard of it. THEN my Mom went to Tanzania and nobody ever heard of it. I think my dad made the whole thing up but I'll never know for sure. Smh... @krazymomofadrian
