-- KyraTeale 1/14/2005. I named my daughter Kyra. It's a beautiful name from old literature & looks pretty spelled this way, however, everyone pronounces it as K-eye-r-a, like a person with a speach impetiment trying to say Kyla. It sounds really stupid called out at the doctor's office.yra is pronounced K eye ra, rhyming with Tyra or Myra, not Keera. If you want your name or your daughterâs name to be pronounced Keera, you spell it Keira (as in Keira Knightly), Kiera, or Kierra.
