Kikey is in Origin.
Kikey is a rare modern given name, most plausibly an English elaboration of the nickname Kiki with the familiar -ey ending (as in Joey or Mickey). Kiki functions across languages as a playful short form for a range of K- names - Katherine/Catherine, Kristina/Christina, Keira/Ciara, and Greek Katerina (from Aikaterine). As such, Kikey inherits meanings tied to its root: “pure” (Katherine), “anointed/follower of Christ” (Christina), or “dark-haired” (Ciara/Keira).
Usage remains very uncommon in official registries; it tends to appear as an affectionate pet name turned given name in late 20th–21st century English-speaking contexts. Variants and cognates include Kiki, Kiky, Keke, Kika, and, in Spanish, Kike - a long-standing nickname for Enrique, pronounced KEE-kay. Because spellings close to Kike can be mistaken in English for a derogatory term, many parents prefer Kiki or Kika to avoid confusion.
