We are having our 3rd little girl and all of the girls in our family have K names, myself and my sisters included. Finding K names I like is really becoming a challenge. Anyway we have settled (sort of) on the name Kerry. Is it too common? The spelling comes from a county in Ireland where my fathers family orginated from. So it has meaning. I usually like more unique names though : / what do you think?
My girls are Kelsey and Kinsley. some other K names in the fam are Kelly, Kimberly, Kristen, Kasey, Kassie. I like the tradition and if I was going to break it I would have done it with my first girl. It makes us all feel like a team I guess : ) but yea names I like a getting pretty slim.
You may not like it because it is considered a unisex name, but I love Kendall for a girl.
I would've used it, but we are having twin boys and like you we are all D names, Dena & Danny and the dogs are Darcy & Dexter so I think we are sticking with D.
I like Kerry... but I do agree there is a lot 'y.' There's the variant Kerrin/Kerryn that may work as well.
There's also: Kendra, Karensa (means love), & Klara (works more if you're German).
The Kerry's I know are men. If I were to do Carrie-with-a-k for a girl I'd probably do Kari.

I like Karen, but that probably doesn't suite your style. But it does get you way from the ie or y ending which I agree with PPs is the best direction to take with this one
My husband's family has a K girl named trend going. It's more coincidental as 1/2 of us married it.
Karen, Kerri, Kim, Kate and Kailee. I broke the trend and named our daughter Adelle . I do like Kerry though!
I think that spelling is usually used for boys. It doesn't really go w your other names either. What about Keira, Kaitlyn, Kiana, Korie, Kennedy, Kendall, Kylie, Kesiah?
I like Kerry a lot, but it doesn't go with your trendy other names.
