Keigan
Does anyone know the roots of the name Keigan. I think it might be a variant of the English- Keegan or Kegan. I have seen the name in Scotland and wondered if this is a Scots spelling.

We named our daughter Keigan. It is usually spelled Keegan, but to give Keigan her own take on it. I changed it to Keigan.
Keegan means little & fiery. It is Gaelic.

Well, my last name is Keigan, which from what I know is Scotch-Irish. However, Keigan was not always spelled as it is now. It was changed when my family came to America.
