I like it.

MumofOMG10 · 13/05/2019 14:37

I have a daughter called Kizzie and I love the name and so does she, It is short for Kesia and means slave and originates from Africa, not that she is either of those.

Not one of my favourites, my first boyfriend has a lovely white dog called Kizzie - but WHAT DO YOU THINK? If you like it, and DP like it then screw everyone else... in a nice way.

SE13Mummy · 11/12/2010 23:41

DD2 was very nearly Keziah (nn Kizzy) as I loved the book 'The Diddakoi' and the main character's feisty nature. Keziah is a Hebrew name, something to do with cinnamon apparently and was used as the name of one of Job's 'beautiful daughters'.

So, Kizzy as a shortening of Keziah, I love. Not as a name in its own right though.

DD2 wasn't called Keziah because we fell in love with the name Miriam and because my niece is an Izzy; cousins called Kizzy and Izzy isn't something we wanted to end up with.

piprabbit · 11/12/2010 23:40

The only Kizzy I've heard of is the one on the BBC documentaries that followed Kizzy through her pregnancy and being a mum at 14 yo.

Why are we discussing the name BTW, if it's not for you?

BluTac · 11/12/2010 23:35

It's a bit daft

MelinaM · 11/12/2010 23:34

^My sentiments exactlyGrin ...sorry but it's truly awful! It sounds very much like a nn...and not a good one! x

ChippingIn · 11/12/2010 22:33

PuraVida I can only spell better than you because I just Googled the book!

sharbie · 11/12/2010 22:07

I remember that book and it will always be a gypsy name to me.

PuraVida · 11/12/2010 22:04

Sorry x post bikerunski (who can spell better than me) Grin

PuraVida · 11/12/2010 22:00

It's a traditional gypsy name i think. I have friend from a travelling background called kizzy. And i Loved the book the didakoi (sp?)when I was little, about a gypsy girl called Kizzy

juneybean · 11/12/2010 21:54

Kizzy on Sugar Rush is "Kim"

AuraofDora · 11/12/2010 21:54

reminds me of Roots, Alex Haley

not liking it tbh

BarbieLovesKen · 11/12/2010 21:53

No, no, no. Your not serious are you??

Mistymoo · 11/12/2010 21:53

MIL cat was called Kizzie so to me it is a cat's name.

BikeRunSki · 11/12/2010 21:52

I have met one adult - in her 80s - called Kizzy, I think short for Kirsten - and it didn't seem like a Proper Name.

It suited my grandfather's cat though Smile!

It was also the name of the lead character of a 1970s children's book called "The Diddacoi" by Rumer Godden. About a gypsy girl trying to fit into mainstream life. In this case it was Kizzy short for Keziah. I think it might be Cornish.

MoonUnitAlpha · 11/12/2010 21:46

I like it as a nickname for Keziah, ridiculous as a name in its own right though.

fulltimeworkingmum · 11/12/2010 21:43

I have known several pets with the name Kizzie, including a dog, a cat and a goat. I've never met a human with that name though.....

KenDoddsDadsDogEatsTinsel · 11/12/2010 21:41

Is it not the name of one of the characters in Sugar Rush?
