Caoimhe (Irish pronunciation: [ˈciːvʲə]), anglicised Kiva, or in Northern Ireland Keeva (both pronounced or K(W)EE-və), is an Irish feminine given name derived from Irish Irish caomh (Old Irish cóem) "dear; noble", from the same root as the masculine name Caoimhín (Kevin).
As of 2014, it was ranked 19th most popular name among female births in Ireland.
Derived from Gaelic caomh, means: beautiful, gentle, kind. From the Irish-Gaelic caomh, means: gentle; and the expanded definition: beauty, grace, courtesy.
