About this list
Baby girl names that start with K have been Kardashianized in recent years, with former C-starting names such as Chloe morphed into newly-trendy Khloe.
Along with Khloe and Kendall, top K names for girls on the US Top 300 include Kennedy, Kinsley, Kayla, Kylie, Kamila, Kali, and Kate. Kate is the top-ranked K name for girls in Ireland and The Netherlands, while Katharina takes that honor in Germany.
Katherine and Kimberly have long ranked among the top K names for girls in many English-speaking countries. But today, the most popular feminine K names on Nameberry are newer choices such as Kaia and all forms of Kiera.
Old favorite K-starting names such as Karen, Kathleen, and Kelly have fallen from favor, while pop culture names such as Kehlani and Khaleesi are rising. Unique K names for girls worth considering include the Greek Kassiani, the Hindi Kalinda, the Biblical Keziah, and the vintage Kitty.
