Kythe
What do you think of Kythe? Pronounced to rhyme with Blythe, and probably used for a female. I started thinking about it while reading A Wind in the Door by Madeleine L'Engle. In the book it's sort of a form of advanced mental telepathy. However, it seems to be an actual word, used in several different ways.
(from Kythe.org) "kythe (pron. kayth): a Scottish word which means healing through simple sharing and togetherness." I couldn't find any more support for this definition.
(from Webster's 1913 Dictionary) "kythe: (1) To make known; to manifest; to show; to declare. (2)To come into view; to appear." This definition was found in several other dictionaries as well.
I like the sound and the meanings, and the possible nn Ky (KAI).
Opinions?

It makes me think of kite. I don't like it.
I like it, although my first reaction was that I wished it started with a C, but then I realized that it would be pronouned like scythe. But I like it. It's nice and simple.
It looks too trendy, Blythe is great though :)
