Kylar

Kylar is a gender-neutral name and a unique play on the well-known Kyle. Scottish in origin, Kylar primarily comes from the Gaelic caol, which is often translated as "narrow" or "strait." Perhaps unsurprisingly, the name is habitual in nature, finding its home in several places in Scotland called Kyle. One of these places was a district in Ayrshire, Scotland, named for the British chieftains who ruled there in the 5th century. Kylar and Kyle could be related to the Irish last name O’Kiely, meaning “graceful” or “beautiful.” In Noogar, an Australian Aboriginal language, kiley translates to “curved” or “returning stick,” two meanings that could also have links to Kylar or Kyle. If little Kylar prefers to experience the world from the pages of books, they’ll love their name’s connection to author Brent Weeks' Night Angel trilogy.
