Popularity

The name Keira entered the popular charts in the United States in the year 2000, so it has only been in use in this century. However, the name rapidly climbed the charts by nearly 900 positions between the years 2002 and 2006. The name's rapid ascent into use was clearly influenced by the popular actress Keira Knightley whose career was on fire during these years (I Want to Be Like Beckham in 2002 and Pirates of the Caribbean in 2003). Keira came close to securing a spot in the Top 100 list of most popular girls' names in America, but in the last couple of years the use of the name has been fading. Nonetheless, Keira remains a Top 100 choice in the state of Massachusetts, which also happens to have the highest concentration of Irish Americans within its population.

I was born before Keira Knightly by a year - the copycat. The meanings vary, dark, dark-haired, dusky, little dark one and even lady. There are different ways to pronounce it. I'm Kee-air-ah. People had trouble with it in school and still do occasionally, but they always remember me afterwards. Most women love the name and men find it inter'sting.

it think to have the name Keira you have to be unique-outdoors kind of person. It would suit a girl with brown hair, fair skin and unique blue/green eyes. It is such a nice name that It'should not be worn out by using it for everyone's name.

I look and her'sometimes and wish I was as beautiful as she is...the girl is knockout at 11 months. As a side note I found two different meanings of the name...the one we use and identify with is "ladylike" which suits her to the "T".

We decide in 2003 that we would name our first daughter Keira but have had only boys since lol. We are currently pregnant again but since one of friends named their daughter Keira we have decided against the name, well that and all our children are born blonde haired and blue eyed so it doesn't really fit. But if anyone is interested in a unique way of spelling it I had chosen the spelling Keyera so that it was still a unique name in it's own way. I really hope to see it spelled that way one day I love it. Well congrats to all the beautiful little girls out there.

We just had a new grandson born on Thursday 05/20 and his name is Emyr Xavier pronounced (Emeer X avier) Love the name and the X pronounciation. Really, depending on the research tool you use, you'll find that pronouncing either the X or Z is correct. Especially when you study the etymology of the word from the place name in the Basque region. Why argue❤️ Both are strong and masculine and special.

My daughter was born in 2018 and we named her Keira Emily. We couldn't decide on the'spelling. My husband liked the name because of Kyra Sedgwick. I decided I liked It'spelled Keira like Keira Knightley. We love the name. It's beautiful just like her and all Keira's no matter how the name is spelled! She's got light brown almost dirty blond hair and green eyes so the meaning "dark one" doesn't quite fit her looks or personality. Kira also means glittery, or shiny, in Japanese. I also found Keira from Italian, meaning "light," or "clear & pure." The Greek word kyrios meaning "a lord" or from the Greek title of respect meaning "lady." Derived from the Persian meaning "sun." That's more like our Keira - a glittery, shiny, clear, pure, sunny little lady. Yes. Some people mispronounce it and misspell it but we just correct them. It's okay. They've even mispronounced and misspelled my name which is Stacey. We love the name Keira. We hardly run into anyone else named Keira which is great because we wanted to give our daughter a unique name instead of one that is popular. She❤️ll probably be the only Keira in her class and that's wonderful!

I'm in 7th grade, and I do like my name alot because It's very unique and i've only met one person with the name of Keira in my Virginia homestate. People will call me "Kiera" or "Kyra," and I wont even lie, it bothe's me. My teacher once got really mad at this kid who was calling me Kyra, because she knows that it bothe's me and so do they.

Name Experience: Daughter's name, born in 2016. Descent: Irish, from Ciara, meaning "dark-haired." Pronunciation/spelling: Most people can pronounce correctly (Kee-ra), but some say Kie-ra, some say Ki-era. Spelling is all over the place, but usually Kira. Othe's with name: A few, It'seems to be growing in popularity. Most young people really like her name, whereas people ~40's+ haven't heard of it. We love her name and think It's strong yet feminine--a very versatile name.

My name is Kierra. I like the name because it is very universal. The Name Kira is latin and means light. The name Kiera seems to have both Galic and Turkish origins. In Galic it means dark or little black one. In Turkish it can mean: Sun; far sighted; lord; shiny; or light. I have also read that the name Keira has teutonic origins and means ever regal. The japanese and Nigerian version of the name, Akira (is often a boys name) and means intelligent; bright; or clear. I prounounce my name Kie (Kair) rra (ruh).

I like girls to have long "legal" names that can be shortened (Deborah to Debbie, for instance) My husband and I named our oldest girl Kieriana. It's pronounced Keer-ee-ANN-uh but we call her KEER-uh. I debated about the Kie... or the Kei...spelling and I went with Kie because it is; after all the feminine form of Kieran! My daughter is 17 now (ouch!) and she likes her name.

My daughter's name is Keira. She was born in July 1994. She grew up as the only Keira in her'school. Now, there are quite a few girls named Keira, after Keira Knightly and Kyra Sedgwick. She didn't like the name at first, but by junior high, she liked being known as Keira. Everyone knew who she was, even without a last name.

I named my daughter Kiera Elizabeth. I ended up spelling it different than actress Knightley by mistake. But the more I read the correct gramatical spelling is K-i-e-r-a not Keira. I have not met any other person with that name except for the two movie stars.

My name is Keira. I was born in 1988 and have never met another person who spells their name like I do. The first time I heard of someone else spelling it "Keira" instead of "Kiera" (which looks wrong to me) was when Keira Knightley became famous. x

My name is Kiera Elizabeth as well! I was named after 'Kira' from the movie Xanadu, but my parents like It'spelled with an 'e' better' Sadly NO ONE says my name right the first time. They say 'key-air-uh' instead of 'keer-uh'. But I love my name very much!
