Dark-haired or little dark one
Kyryn is a modern variant of the Irish name Kieran or Ciaran. It derives from the Gaelic word 'ciar', which translates to 'dark' or 'black', often used to describe hair or complexion. This specific spelling is a contemporary American invention, likely influenced by the popularity of names like Kylo and Ryan.
