Keiran is my brother's name, but we pronounce it KYE-ran.
My son is Keren and we pronouce it like Kiran / Kieran.
I've never heard of Kier, but Keir is not from Keiran (sadly) it is from Kerr. Check the links.

Hmm..the Keir pronunciation is new for me, but I'm sure it's acceptable too.

Yeah I checked but every other name site I've been to said Keir comes from Keiran or at least means the same exact thing. And a trend I have found is that there are a couple ways of pronouncing Keiran and Keir and I was just putting down my favorite way.

I love this site it is usually correct but I have found a few mistakes not many. This is always my favorite site because it has a larger database than most and is pretty reliable.
