Has anyone heard of this name?

Would you pronounce it Kay or Kie - lor?

Boy or girl?

I've never seen it before and don't take to it (sorry)

I would pronounce it to rhyme with 'sailor' and would expect a boy

LovingLola · 15/08/2020 13:37

Have never heard of it
Would pronounce it as it’s spelt - rhyming with sailor

OhTheRoses · 15/08/2020 13:37

I can hear it being yelled now and not in a good way.

CodenameVillanelle · 15/08/2020 13:37

I would pronounce it kylor. It's horrible

FizzyGreenWater · 15/08/2020 13:39

Yuk. That’s a bad ‘un

notanotherlasagne · 15/08/2020 13:39

Is his middle name Cabbage?

DramaAlpaca · 15/08/2020 13:39

I would think it's an unappealing misspelling of Kayla.

woodhill · 15/08/2020 13:41

Sounds ghastly

GinWithASplashOfTonic · 15/08/2020 13:41

I'm assuming it rhymes with Sailor or Tailor
Not keen sorry

CoffeeRunner · 15/08/2020 13:41

I’d pronounce it to rhyme with Sailor.

Not sure of usual gender as it “looks” more male but both Sailor & Kayla (which it would sound like) are both female. So unisex possibly.

worstwitch18 · 15/08/2020 13:42

I would expect it to rhyme with Taylor/Sailor.

Written down my immediate reaction is boy, but spoken aloud it might be confused with Kayla so I would probably expect a girl if I heard the name.

Personally I don't like it.

NameChange84 · 15/08/2020 13:43

I’d think it rhymed with Sailor and was one of the worst most unfortunate names I had ever encountered. Poor kid.

nitgel · 15/08/2020 13:43

Yes know a girl with this name

nitgel · 15/08/2020 13:44

Though not spelt like op

Biscuitsneeded · 15/08/2020 13:44

Grim. Sorry.

Tlollj · 15/08/2020 13:45

Like everyone else to rhyme with sailor. Probably a boy. But it’s horrible.
One of those made up ones.

VacMan · 15/08/2020 13:45

It's like Michaela and you can't be arsed saying the full name.

It's not very nice.

elfran · 15/08/2020 14:06

Ooof, it's bad. I would imagine a boy (as Kai is masculine, and Sailor can be either), but I'd feel pretty bad for him.

HoratioNightboy · 15/08/2020 14:17

I've seen Kailer in the records a couple of times, for boys. Would assume it's pronounced to rhyme with Sailor. Can't say I'm a fan.

FredaFox · 15/08/2020 14:18

Awful name but I’d say it rhymes with sailor

Delta1 · 15/08/2020 14:21

@OhTheRoses hahaha 😂 Me too!

Puffalicious · 15/08/2020 14:23

Awful. Think again.

TinySongstress · 15/08/2020 14:24

Yeah, not a fan.

Rhymes with Sailor. I actually prefer Sailor.

FelicityPike · 15/08/2020 14:33

Rhymes with Sailor, male......(.I don’t care what people think but )I’d imagine very chavvy parents. Sorry, judging the heck out of it but that’s not a name.
However, it’s your choice.

Please don’t.
