Re: Vesper and Kyrie
in reply to a message by BBH
In my religion, a Kyrie is a part of the liturgy in which we call to the Lord, sort of like a prayer. So, I don't consider it disrespectful at all. I understand your point though, and the fact that no one would pronounce it the right was is disconcerting so I think I would probably not use it at all.

Yes, you reiterated what I had stated. "A call to the lord" or a word used to invoke the attention of God. Not really a tasteful baby name.

I don't get why it wouldn't be? Calling to the Lord is distasteful? Prayer is distasteful? I guess I just don't see what you are trying to say.ETA: I don't see how it is any different than using a name that means "The Lord is my God" or "Hear My Prayer" or something similiar.
