I think it's the most beautiful name for a boy. And for princes too :) It's sounds so pure, fresh and cute. This is the name of Kai Uwe Faust from "Heilung" also.
I’m quite surprised that no-one had yet mentioned Kai Hahto, the drummer for Finnish heavy metal band Wintersun. He’s filled in for Jukka Nevalainen of Nightwish since 2014.

Huening Kai is a K-pop idol from the Bighit group TXT.
I heard this name from a boy that's apart of a popular Korean boy group called EXO. I LOVE this name.

If Kai actually is derived from the name Gerhard, Gerda and Kai, the main characters of H.C. Andersen's 'the Snow Queen', would bear feminine and masculine diminutives of the same name.
The name Kai has been getting more popular over the years. There is a member of a really well known Korean boy band called EXO by the name of Kai. He is known as the face of the group therefore a lot of it's popularity would be coming from that.
Jennifer Connely has a son named Kai. Cindy Crawford's daughter is named Kaia. Kai is the name of the boy in the "Snow Queen" fairy tale by Hans Christian Andersen.
I seem to recall a boy's name in one of Christian Andersen's fairy tales, but I can't remember which one. Kai Hansen is also a very famous German heavy metal guitarist. It is definitely a very rare name, and to me it sounds very "outworldly".
It was Kai in Hans Christian Anderson's The Snow Queen. He was the little boy who had shards of glass land in his eye and his heart, and he was kidnapped by the Snow Queen. His friend Gerda went to rescue him. It's a great story.
