Kiell pronounced Kyle is the first name of the British actor hosting The Great British Sewing Bee this year. WDYT of Kiell? Is it an intuitive pronunciation to you?

Don’t take criticism from someone you wouldn’t take advice from

Not even somewhat intuitive! Like a slightly elaborated German canal.

I thought this was a variant of the Scandinavian name Kjell. I only like the Kyle spelling and the pronunciation isn't intuitive.

I did immediately think, I hope this isn't some strange made-up version of Kyle, so I guess it's intuitive.

Don't like that spelling reminds me of the keel of a boat at first. I suppose the pronounciation is intuitive by why, you'd forever have to spell it

Knew of a guy called Kiel pronounced keel, and that's how I'd say this name, too, if not told otherwise.

I'd pronounce it KEEL. No fancy spelling is going to make Kyle cool I'm afraid.

I instinctively pronounced it kee-ELL. It's not a bad name, though. I could get used to it.

Fun fact: I know someone who's named Kyhl, pronounced like Kyle.

I think Kyle is a better spelling. I would have mispronounced this name.
