[Opinions] Kyra
i’m writing a book and one character’s name is Kyra (K-eye-ra) though i’ve changed the spelling and pronunciation of it several times.
what do you think of it, and would you spell/pronounce it any differently? :)

My first instinct was "Keer-uh;" I grew up with a Kyra who pronounced it that way. "Kai-ruh" is also very pretty, but I do prefer the name Kira "Keer-uh" instead. Kyra with your desired pronunciation is easily recognized, though you may need to correct some! I'd say to keep the spelling it as is, for your pronunciation
I've always thought Kyra would make more sense pronounced that way.
I like it. I think Kyra is the easiest way to spell it. Kaira would work too but I've never seen it spelled that way.
Oh, Kaira is so pretty! I wish that were used more.
I find it very ugly, but I'd pronounce it the same way.
