There’s a historical marker in Asheville, NC about Kiffin Rockwell, WWI pilot. With an I not Y though.

My name was going to be Kyffin if I was a boy! This is my first time ever hearing it outside of my family. It was my great-grandmother’s maiden name and my parents loved it. Cool to see it on a name list!

While Theano is my favorite from these names, putting it up against Clovelly was a tough decision. Both are names I like but hadn't really thought of before today.

thank you for your comment! Theano and Clovelly are both lovely - Clovelly is one that's stayed on my mind since I first saw it

It’s not new but I noticed you don’t have the name Tench, my ex-husband’s name. https://www.gpeters.com/names/baby-names.php?name=Tench
