Baby Names

Kylie/Kiley?

WDYT? Cute? Classic? Different? I have a niece named Riley...is that weird if they were to rhyme? Which spelling? TIA!

Re: Kylie/Kiley?

  • I think Kylie is way too trendy. I cannot imagine and adult with the name.

  • I think Kylie is moderately cute on a small child, but I don't know how well it would suit an adult (unless she were an Australian pop star).

  • I agree with the PP - it doesn't age very well.  It's NMS but could be cute as a nickname.

  • I don't like it. To me it doesn't age well. BUT I don't detest it (like I wouldn't turn my nose up at it if I met someone with this name).
  • I'm anti Kylie/Kiley as a first name, but only because that's how my maiden name was pronounced (spelled slightly differently). To me it will always be a last name, no matter how many little Kylie/Kileys I meet!

  • I don't mind it, but I used to live in Australia where there were a TON of Kylies!  So, it ages well in my mind.

    Yuck.

    Not cute. Not Classic. Not Different.

    It is VERY trendy, though.

    Kylie, if you really want to.

    AGREE.

    I agree with this.

  • It's cutesy--it'd be kind of cute for a little girl, but it would be annoying on an adult. It's not in the slightest bit classic or different. Very trendy. 
  • I, personally, love the name. We're actually naming out daughter Kylie. It's a mix of our names - it was the only girls name we could agree on.
    Not sure about rhyming names though.... might be confusing for the girls. up to you though!!! It's your daughter :)

  • Classic?!?!  For real?
  • I think if she will be around your niece often, than it is to rhymey.

  • cutesy...not a fan.  very 90s.

     kylie.

    i think it's fine to use this name even if your cousin's kid is named riley.

  • I don't think of this as classic at all.I dislike it as a full first name,but it's passable as a NN.

    I had a friend named Kyla in middle school and she went by Kylie.But at least Kyla sounded slightly more grown up for when she was older.

  • I don't think it is classic at all.

    It might just be a pet peeve of mine, b/c I cannot stand the Kylie/Keely/Kaylee/Callie names. They all just sound to me like someone with a strong accent saying my name (Kelly).

  • I happen to love the name. I know quite a few-some around my age (mid 20s-30s) and some at my daughter's school (3-4 year olds). To me it ages well, probably because I know Kiley's of all different ages.

  • That is my name Kiley and I like it.  Its more common nowadays then when I was growing up.
