Kyler is English in Origin.

Kyler is a modern American given name, most commonly masculine, widely understood as a blend of Kyle and Tyler. Kyle traces to Scottish Gaelic caol, meaning "narrow; strait," while Tyler is an occupational surname from Middle English tiler, "tile maker; roofer." The blended form carries contemporary style more than a single fixed meaning, though parents often read it as combining those roots. Kyler also appears as a family name in North America; in some lines it reflects an Americanized German surname such as Keiler, adding a secondary surname route into given-name use.

Used sporadically before mid-century, Kyler rose on U.S. birth charts from the 1980s and peaked in the 2000s-2010s, fitting the era’s surname-and-occupational-name trend. While largely given to boys, it is occasionally unisex. Variants and related forms include Kylar, Kylor, and the base names Kyle and Tyler; feminine counterparts Kyla and Kylie; nicknames Ky/Kai; and the cognate-sounding Skyler/Schuyler.
