My sister is named this, pronounced key-rie. Pretty dope name.
My daughter is named this, pronounced like the Catholic hymn (we are not Catholic though). I think that the popularity figures are likely for Kyrie (1) when it’s pronounced kai as in kind and ree as in real. Anyway, it always takes adults some getting used to pronunciation-wise, but kids catch on quickly. She is annoyed at how often adults forget how to say it, but it’s so beautiful this way, it’s worth the effort! And her nickname is Kiki (kee kee).
Sounds like it would be pronounced KIE-ree.
