Comment left Jun 14, 2009: "The mother of Tutankhamun's name was Kiya <--spelt like that. Pronounced the same way as on Willow. the "Ki" being like "Kite". Not like the last half of my name (Saskia) pronounced Sus(bus) Key-a" (Report as inappropriate)
Comment left Jun 08, 2009: "My daughter was born May 6 2008 and we named her Kya Mai. My husband and I are big fans of Japanese anime. 'Kya' is a name from Princess Mononoke and 'Mai' is from My Neighbor Totoro.
We had this name picked out way before she was even conceived and so far it has been well received and even stolen a couple of times! :) However, my doctor's nurse still calls her kee-a, like the car - even though we correct her a dozen times - telling her it rhymes with my-a...she's old so we forgive her..."

Comment left Apr 13, 2009: "My daughter's name is Kyah. She is almost three. I didn't see anything about it being a unisex name when I looked it up then. If I had I may have rethought her middle name, which is Evan. (Named after a friend that passed) Oh well she really suits her name she is a precious diamond in my sky." (Report as inappropriate)
