Kyren Origin and Meaning
The name Kyren is a boy's name meaning "king, ruler; little dark one".
With its cool, modern sound, Kyren is one of the fastest-rising boy names. It was a newcomer to the US Top 1000 in 2023 and climbed over 130 spots in 2024. It appeals thanks to its short form Ky, its on-trend K initial, and perhaps because it feels like an update on Kyle.
Possibly a variation of Irish Kieran or Persian Cyrus, Kyren may also be an invented name, based on Kyron (itself based on Kyle, Myron, and Byron).
