Looks like it is independently loved by many nations.. and the meaning in Hawaiian is beautiful. In Hawaiian, Kai is a unisex name which means "sea" in Hawaiian language or “ocean”. |
| There are way, way too many Kais. It was cool and edgy in 2009, but now it's popular and everywhere. |
Oh seriously, anything is better then another Dylan, Carter or Cooper... Gimme me double veggies. Kai Kai!~ |
More Kai. |
| I love it and would have gone with it but it is very, very popular in CA and HI. Almost cliche especially for mixed race Asian kids. |
This describes the only Kai I know. He's still a teenager, but I could easily see him attending Harvard. Smart, sweet, down-to-earth family. |
| I love the name, but yet it’s been used a lot lately. |
|
I like it.
It was the 100th most popular boys name in 2019--but it's been steadily moving up (was in the 400s in 2000) |
There you have it. |
|
Pretty sure Gigi Hadid and Zayn Malik just named their DAUGHTER Khai.
I don't like the name, for a boy or a girl. |
Kai from Lexx. Of course.
|
| I know it as a Hawaiian name. I think it’s a terrible name for someone not connected to Hawaii. I envision the opposite of a stereotypical “Harvard grad.” |
| Thank you for the flashback. I used to have such a huge radio crush on Kai Ryssdal (we’re talking a good 10 years ago). I’m a fan of the name! |
| I love this name. About a dozen years ago i named my son something else but tried to nickname him Kai. Sadly, it didn’t stick. Still a great name though. |
Agree |
