I like K names too. Here are some I have collected for my list (DH doesn't like, so hopefully someone can get use from them).

girls:
Keelan - like lots
Kaymi - not sure about a 45-year-old VP named Kaymi.

I assume you are not a fan of popular ones like Kayla, Kenzie, or Katelynn :)
Keeva - phonetic spelling of Irish name Caoimhe. "gentle, beautiful, precious"
Keelin - also Irish - caol = "slender" fionn = "white/fair/pure"
Keela - Irish Cadhla = "a beauty only poetry could describe" (love the meaning!)
Kellan - nice but I've seen it on boys lists too
(hmm, now that I'm re-reading, it's really only 1 new one and 3 variations of yours...)

boys:
Klayte - OK
Kode (a name from dh's family tree, pronounced as spelled....anyone think it'll be confused w/ Kody?) YES (people are easily confused)
Klay, klark, and kash (all somewhat popular) sorry they just look spelled wrong
Koyer (dh doesn't like) so-so

Keegan
Keenan
Koleton
Korbin or Korben
Koren
Kennon - "little Kenneth"
Kenyon
Kaden ;) - OK I'm biased for this one!
Kailer/Kyler
Kane

HTH, good luck with your little "K"!

I don't really like altering spellings to fit a pattern, so I'd probably only be drawn to Koyer.

A few other ideas:

Koen (the Dutch form of Coen)
Keane (I love this one)
Kiefer
Kimball
Kent
Keverne (my BIL's mn; it's Cornish)
Kai (though perhaps a bit confusing with Kyra)
Keefe
Kerr
Kemp (absolutely love this)
Kester
Kipling
Kyler

Edited to add that I know a Kaymi, and she was sweet, but I liked her sister's name more--Kelaine.

Here are my thoughts and some other suggestions...

Kaymi - I really dislike this spelling, but the name is fine. It does seem less "grown-up-able" than your other children though
Keelan - it is ok, feels a little like a boys name. I really like Keely or Keela though.

Other girl ideas - Karys, Kyla (oh, probably too close to Kyra), Kaileen

Klayte - I am normally a sucker for family names, but I just don't care for this one

Kode (a name from dh's family tree, pronounced as spelled....anyone think it'll be confused w/ Kody?)- I would definitely think it is Kody

Klay, klark, and kash (all somewhat popular) - all popular, but also as dr. kae said, I don't like changing the spelling of a name to fit a pattern

Koyer (dh doesn't like)- it is ok

I love Keane for you guys. Love it!
I also like Kellen a lot.

Good Luck!
