Narrow channel or strait; wood or church
Kylor is a modern American invention, likely created as a blend of the names Kyle and Taylor or Tyler. It draws its roots from the Gaelic 'caol' meaning a narrow strait and the Middle English 'taillour' meaning cutter of cloth, or the Old English 'tigele' meaning tile maker. As a standalone name, it functions as a contemporary alternative to more established surnames.
