What is the meaning of the name Khyree ?

The baby name Khyree is a Male name , 2 syllables long and is pronounced KYE-ree (Kye-REE) — /kaɪˈriː/.

Khyree is English in Origin.

Khyree is a modern American given name, mainly masculine, that pairs inventive spelling with liturgical roots. Often viewed as a phonetic variant of Kyrie - from Greek Kyrie, vocative of Kyrios, "O Lord" - it echoes the Christian prayer Kyrie eleison. In U.S. use it emerged late in the 20th century and rose further in the 2010s as the Kyrie/Kyree family gained visibility.

Meaning depends on the root: linked to Kyrie, it suggests "lordly" or "of the Lord." Some also associate it with Khari, an African-American name often explained via Swahili as "kingly," though that is a separate origin. Variants and related forms include Kyrie, Kyree, Kyre, Khyri, and Khyre; brief nicknames like Ky or Ree are common.
