About Kyrie
Kyrie may be a name of God used widely in the ancient church refrain Kyrie Elieson, or Lord, have mercy, but it's rising in popularity for boys in the US on the strength of basketball star Kyrie Irving. Irving pronounces the first syllable of Kyrie to rhyme with my, whereas with the religious word it rhymes with fear.
Pronounced KEER-ee.
As of October 2026, Kyrie ranked #244 in US births in 2025 SSA, peaked at #215 in 2017.
