Kyler is a creative name that American parents invented and now many love. It can serve as a blend of Kyle, meaning "narrows," and Tyler, "meaning "tile maker," and can be a great choice to celebrate family members with the two classic monikers. For baby's more northern connections, the name Kyler might be perfect! It may be a variant of the Dutch name Cuyler, meaning "crossbowman" or "archer," or Kuiler, meaning "fisherman." It may also be a variant of the German last name Keiler, meaning "wild boar" or "woodchopper." It has been on the baby-name charts since the 1980s but still manages to feel modern decades later.
