About Kyrie
Kyrie has more than one modern naming pathway. The word comes from Greek kyrie, the vocative form of kyrios, meaning 'Lord,' and is familiar from the Christian prayer Kyrie eleison, meaning 'Lord, have mercy.' Modern naming references also record a separate modern form with a different cultural development. Because the spelling has independent masculine and feminine naming associations, Kyrie can function as a gender-neutral name. Its religious, musical and Greek connections give it distinctive depth.
