Bout Me
My name is Kia, short for Nkiay. Nkiay is the name I gave my self, and Kia is the shortened version. Nkiay is pronounced (nuh-kie) then to pronounce Kia just take off the (nuh) sound. I was curious if my name had a meaning so I looked it up on google. Nkiay means nothing, is nothing, other than my various accounts on several sites. Kia on the other hand had many results. The most prominent was Kia Motors, its pronounced different though. From several name sites I got different things, here are a few. The meaning of the name Kia is Hill. The origin of the name Kia is African. Kia is a Swedish pet form of Kristina. In the English-speaking world, its use is recent, and probably arbitrary, or a pet form of Kiana. In New Zealand and Australia it may have been inspired by the Maori phrase 'kia ora' (be well), which is used as a greeting or to wish someone good luck.
The worst meaning of my name though is an acronym KIA. Killed in action (or KIA) is a casualty classification generally used by militaries to describe the deaths of their own forces by other hostile forces or by "friendly fire" during combat. Nice, huh? I have a good choice in names… T_T
