My name is Kiri. My mom named me after the red haired women from the movie The Beast Tamer. And it is pronounced K-eerie. Not Kee-ree. My dad however is strange and pronounces it as Carrie.
In addition, I know very few people with the name. I know of a country singer with it but I don't know her full name.

My name is Kiri. I was told of several meanings from my mother. It means little debt in one language and it means tree bark in another. I have always been the only one I have ever known. I also know that the name was chosen for me from a book series called Dragonlance along with my middle name. I am not sure but I do know that I grew up hating it because most couldn't pronounce it and although it was pretty and very unique it was a bother that no one ever got it right. I love my name now, it suits me very well I think.

My name is Kiri. No it's not pronounced keereee as most of my teachers say *cough* My computer sciences teacher *cough* I have been told that it means skin in Maori (My friends called me skin the unicorn for awhile) I think it's very unique and I didn't think there would be a lot of people that are named Kiri, but Kiri is a fabulous name and I love it because I'm the only one in 1600 students at my school that is named Kiri.
