The prounciation that instinctively comes to mind, would be 'Ky-ree' (similiar to Kylie)
I'm don't care Kyrie. I think it sounds strange and also annoying. It's like Kylie (Overly modern, juvenile and annoying) but worse in my opinion.

I like it. I have met a girl named Kyrie, pronounced KEER-ee. I’ve also met a girl Kyria pronounced keer-EE-a.

It might be weird as a name if you pronounce it KEER-ee or KEER-ee-ay. If it's KY-ree, like Kylie with an r, it's probably fine to use because that wouldn't be a religious thing.

You’re literally naming the kid "Lord" or "Master" - I should know, as I speak Greek. Kyrie as a name is stupid and ignorant.

You do know that it introduces a prayer? That it addresses God (m) by the title 'Lord" (m)? And you kind of like it for a girl. OK. I think it is totally unsuitable, and I'm not even religious. KEE ree ay

I dislike Kyrie on a girl. But hey, to each their own. Anyways, I can only think of Kyrie Irving whenever I hear this name. It’s not bad, but I would never use it. 5.5/10.
