Kennyth is a variant spelling of Kenneth, a masculine name with Scottish Gaelic origins. Derived from the Gaelic names Cináed or Coinneach meaning "handsome" or "born of fire," it carries strong, positive connotations. The alternative spelling with a 'y' gives the traditional name a more distinctive and modern appearance while maintaining its historical roots.
