Meaning: 'ancient', Irish origin
I got a bit stuck when it came to choosing a 'K' name. Often K names are just 'C' names which people have decided to stick a K on to make them seem different. A lot of kre8iv names begin with a K (ie - names changed for the sake of it!). Examples being Kameron, Krystal, Katelyn, Koen. I'm not convinced by this sort of tinkering with names to make them individual but that's just me!
One name which is originally spelt with a C but which I prefer with a K is Kian. This name has come to my attention recently because of the British programme I'm A Celebrity, Get Me Out Of Here (the singer from Westlife won this year's competition. Yes, my husband and I did watch it. Shame on us!).
Kian is a handsome Irish name, with the unfortunate meaning of 'ancient'. It has the classic 2 syllable, ending in -n form which is popular for boys' names (Hayden, Logan, Ethan, Aiden, Ryan, Dylan etc). I was quite surprised to find it is number 89 in the popularity charts for England and Wales, as I have never met anyone with this name. I think it fits in well with current popular boys' names and would be very cute on a little boy. Ooh and it's Irish :)
