This is a list of names in which the first letter is K; and the origin is Mayan Mythology.
K'awil m Mayan MythologyPossibly means
"powerful one" in Classic Maya. This was the name of the Maya god of lightning, generations and corn. He was sometimes depicted with one of his legs taking the form of a serpent. His name was also used as a title for other gods.
K'inich m Mayan MythologyMeans
"hot, sunny" in Classic Maya, derived from
k'in "sun". K'inich Ajaw (
ajaw meaning "king, lord") was the Maya god of the sun.
K'inich was commonly used as an element in the names of Maya royalty.
K'uk'ulkan m Mayan MythologyMeans
"feathered serpent", from Classic Maya
k'uk' "quetzal, quetzal feather" and
kaan "serpent, snake". This was the name of a snake god in Maya mythology, roughly equivalent to the Aztec god
Quetzalcoatl. This is the Yucatec Maya form — the K'iche' name is
Q'uq'umatz (which is only partially cognate).
