Comment left Sep 05, 2010: "I named my little female siberian husky "Kya" when I found her in 2005. I wanted a beautiful name and spelled it Kaia; but nobody could pronounce this spelling so I changed it to "Kya." People forget the name or pronounce it wrong all the time. I love it the name Kya!"

  • Comment left Aug 10, 2010: "I'm called Kya, pronounced as Key-ah. It's actually an abbreviation of my full name Saskia, which is hard to pronounce for English speaking folk. Wonder if the other lady posting here called Saskia knows she posted it exactly 376 years to the day on which the first famous Saskia, Rembrandt's wife, died ;o)" (Report as inappropriate)

    Comment left Aug 08, 2010: "I named my daughter Kya Alana (pronounced Ky-a Alar-na).she was actually 6 weeks old by the time i decided on her name. I wanted something different so i asked users of another site for suggestions and 1 member who suggested it told me it meant diamond, but all the meanings i read sound lovely. Alana was after my step dad" (Report as inappropriate)

    Comment left Jul 30, 2010: "My name is Kya Andrea' pronounced Keya. I am 28 years old and I thought for many years that I was the only person that spelled their name this. Glad to see I am not alone. We are all unique. I always get asked if that's my whole name." (Report as inappropriate)

    Comment left Jul 27, 2010: "My name is kya marie born in 1989. It has become incdedibly popular, no one had heard of it when I was young. I can understand the increase though, its a gorgeous unique name for a girl although have heard of many males with the same name and different spelling. I feel you all when u say you get frustrated when people call you or ur daughters kia haha its never going to stop! The roll call at school was the worst for me, people still call me kia today."

    Comment left Jul 19, 2010: "Kya was the only girls name I liked when I was pregnant with my daughter, and now that she's 3 it's still my favourite name in the world and I'm glad I chose it. It drives me crazy when people misspell or mispronounce it though because even though unique and somewhat unusual, it's such a simple short name, it should be easy to get right." (Report as inappropriate)

    Comment left Jul 12, 2010: "my daughter is called KYA, which means diamond in the sky(not spelt any other way because it would have a different meaning). most people dont say it right, but we are getting there slowly." (Report as inappropriate)

    Comment left Jun 19, 2010: "I'm so glad to see that others have spelled this name as well as pronounced it the way I will. I am expecting our first and if its a girl I will be naming her Kyah Marie. I first heard it on Willow & loved it. Thanks to all for the encouraging comments!" (Report as inappropriate)

  • Comment left Mar 17, 2010: "I am 14 now, and my name is Kya. My parents are completely unaware of why they picked that name, although I used to thinki was named after my grandma's niece, Kaia- it is pronouced the same as my own name. I have actually met around 5 or 6 people with my name, but not a single one is spelled the way mine is. It makes me feel unique, but at the same time blended in. I love it, but i wish people would stop seeing my name tag and saying "well thank you, kee-ya (that beeing how they pronouced it)" really people! its not spelled like the car and it is not said like the car!" (Report as inappropriate)

When i was in labour with her a south african lady said that in the part she was from Kya meant "home" which i thought was lovely but i have seen lots of posts on here saying it means "diamond in the sky" i think that is absolutley beautifull!! Iv'e got a 9 month old little boy who i have named Aston,all iv'e had so far is "oh did you name him after the Aston Martin" grrr lovely car but no lol." (Report as inappropriate)

  • Comment left Dec 23, 2009: "My daughter is almost three years old, and I named her Kyah Lily. I love the meaning of her name, but had also only ever heard it in the movie Willow. If I had known it was this popular, I might have re-thought it....however she completely suits her name." (Report as inappropriate)

    Comment left Nov 07, 2009: "I named my daughter Kya. She was born Jan 2001. After I saw the movie Willow. I knew I would name my daughter Kya. She is every meaning behind Kya. She also loves her name. She loves the American Girl doll Kaya because she says its just like her." (Report as inappropriate)

    Comment left Oct 10, 2009: "I named my daughter Kya because of all the meanings and I love the song "Kaya" by Bob Marley, and really don't mind what the significance means in Jamaican but, My daughter is 12 and loves her name." (Report as inappropriate)
