My friend is expecting her 3rd baby and she is looking for a modern name for her baby beginning with K . She doesn't know the sex of the baby yet ... any ideas ? ?

Katniss is the heroine in the Hunger Games (and a plant/flower) so I would expect that one to increase in popularity. kindle, on the other hand....Hmm

I always like the name Keturah.

Chip is right, mumsnet thinks K names are terribly chav. And that Kardashian lot don't help.

I am a Kirsty, btw. Don't call a baby that, it's a shite name.

Why on earth would it be a joke thread
? hmmmm , my youngest is 5 so I don't regularly come into the names threads to know K names aren't very liked ...

Some nice names to pass on there ... I could only offer Kacey, Keira for girls and Kaiden , Kai , Kian, Keegan , Kyle for boys ! Thanks for the help :)

I'm a K name. I like my name and I'm frightfully middle class. So do fuck off K haters.

gallicgirl · 08/09/2012 22:46

Can't believe more people haven't suggested Kayden.

Surely a modern classic for any gender?

KirstyJC · 08/09/2012 22:49

Kirsty is a lovely name.

I also know a Kian (boy) and I like Keira.

(I didn't realise MN didn't like K names. Maybe that's why I appear to be so good at killing threads?)

FunnysInLaJardin · 08/09/2012 22:52

Katharine is quite posh and quite naice as is Katrina and Katherine. Also Khloe, Kim, Kourtney, Khardashian, and Kylie

joanofarchitrave · 08/09/2012 22:52

Katharine.

racingheart · 08/09/2012 22:54

I love the name Katya (or Katja) for a girl.
Katie (how could anyone think that's common - it's a classic.) Keira, Karola, Keren, Kristin, Kali, Keris.

Kai is very nice for a boy. Kyle is fine too. Kristian is gorgeous, Kaleb, Kasper, Kerry, Keiran.
