I wasn't entirely clear on that, I guess, but Shannon probably was.
I think, therefore I judge.

And about the noun 'kira'...
It is also used as a name in Japan, including that particular noun.
Looking at data from namaejiten.com, which provides popularity data from 1989-2003, Kira (綺羅) was given to 10 girls and 3 boys in 2003.
In total, 65 girls and 19 boys were given the name with these particular kanji from that period, which makes it a fairly recent yet uncommon name.
Though きらきら is not really given to girls in Japan (obviously).
That brings me to this...
If Shannon gave birth to a boy and named him Kira, how would you feel about it, especially when she uses the same combo?

She wouldn't. Of that I am posititve. In the US Kira/Keira/Kyra are strictly female names. To name a boy Kira would be like naming a girl Robert. It Is Simply Not Done.

She wouldn't. Of that I am posititve. Well, I know that. I'm just hypothetically asking you that question. You know what, I shouldn't have even asked you this. I'm sorry.
