Combination of Ke- and Sandra, meaning defender of mankind
Kiandra is a modern American invention, likely created by combining the popular prefix 'Ki-' or 'Ke-' with the name Sandra. Sandra itself is a diminutive of Alexandra, which is derived from the Greek name Alexandros, meaning 'defending men'. It emerged as part of a 20th-century trend of creating rhythmic, multi-syllabic names for girls.
