Re: Kira, Mira, Esme and Ingrid
Ingrid is very dated, and a distant third in my -rid stakes: first would be Sigrid, then Astrid and finally Ingrid.
Esme is a family name; also dated but IMO it qualifies as vintage. I'd use it as a mn.
Kira: never seen it IRL and with luck I won't.
Mira looks like a spelling mistake for Myra, which is even more dated than Ingrid. I much prefer Mary.I'd have difficulty imagining Kira on an adult; also Mira, though Myra is definitely adults-only.
