What is the meaning of the name Kiry ?

The baby name Kiry is a Unisex name , 2 syllables long and is pronounced KEE-ree (/ˈkiːri/),KIR-ee (/ˈkɪri/).

Kiry is Slavic in Origin.

Kiry is a rare, modern given name used for all genders. It often arises as a short form or spelling variant of Kir-/Kyr- names across languages. In Slavic contexts it can serve as a pet form of Kirill or Kiryl (from Greek Kyrillos). In English-speaking countries it appears from the late 20th century as an independent, streamlined choice, influenced by Kira, Kiri, and Kyrie; usage remains uncommon.

Meanings vary by source: from Greek kyrios "lord," via Kyrillos/Kyriakos, it conveys "lordly" or "belonging to the Lord." As a variant of Kiri it can reflect Maori kiri "skin, bark," Japanese Kiri ("mist" or "paulownia"), or Khmer Kiri from Sanskrit giri "mountain." Related forms include Kiri, Kira, Kyrie, and Kirie; masculine cognates include Kiril/Kirill, Cyril, and Kyrylo; nicknames include Kiro and Kira.
