For a girl we are thinking Kya. I wasn't to crazy about the name at first, but my husband has loved it all his life, b/c of the Bob Marley song. It's growing on me now. What do you think about Kya Mackenzie?

Hmm. I love Kya, and I love Bob Marley, so you got like 3 points there for choosing a name that has importance, in my opinion.

I don't necessarily like that Kya is placed with a more mainstream and trendy name, I think that personally, it gives it a messy vibe. Taking from Angelina Jolie's new adopted daughter, Zahara Marley, I think that Kya Marley is perhaps prettier then Kya Mackenzie.

I second Kya Eilisia, Elesia is a nice spelling of it too.

my friend has Eilisia as her name, she says that most people don't have trouble saying it, because she spells it with an E.

For instance, Alicia Silverstone, her name is pronounced as Eilisia, but because it's spelled with an A instead, it's sort of confusing.

Kya's nice. Not familiar with the song, but I've seen the name (only spelled Kaya - which is my preferred spelling - and Kaia), and it's pretty.
I'm with the person who suggested Kya Celeste. I think it's lovely.

Bob Marley's song is Kaya though, meaning herb

That's what I thought too, that the song was about pot.

I do prefer the Kaya spelling, as Marley used it, to Kya. And I prefer Kaia even more. The name has multiple meanings in multiple languages so I wouldn't worry a lot about the marijuana reference.

I agree that Kaya Celeste is very pretty.

i've seen it spelt somehow with a j in it and i thought it was pretty, maybe kija ? anyhow it's similar to kyra which we are thinking about for ttc#2 so maybe that's why i like it :)

Kya Mackenzie is ok but for whatever reason Kya sounds better to me with shorter middle names like Kya Grace or Kya Rose =)

I like Kya Madeleine. Simple and sweet. But it's not cutesy.
It just reminded me of Kya Marin. It has an element of an adorable but yet grown up-ness to it.

Kya Quinn is also pretty, but i think Madeleine does the first name justice.

love the name Kya. Mackenzie, not too sure about, but i think that Kya Marley would make a good combo.

Kya Mackenzie sounds like a really fun name. Kiah is also a cute way of spelling it.

yeah, Kiah is a nice one

I'm not entirely sure on the proper spelling, but I just wanted to make sure you do know that people will think you're a stoner... >>

My sister considered naming her second child this, but, she changed her mind 'cause she got worried our family would find out what it means.


It's a cute song though.

I know someone who actually named their daughter Marley, no one has ever thought of it as a stoner name. Cassidy is a Grateful Dead song I believe, and pot never crosses my mind when I hear it. lol Kya is cute.
