Keneth

Keneth is an Anglicized version of the Scottish and Gaelic names 'Coinneach' and 'Cináed,' respectively. It is a derivative of the Gaelic word caoin, which means 'handsome,' or Cináed, which means 'born of fire.' Therefore, the meaning of Keneth is 'handsome' or 'born of fire.' The name is popular among Christians because it was borne by Saint Keneth (or Cenydd) in the 6th century. He was a Welsh hermit who is believed to be the founder of the church at Llangennith. Also, as a variant of Kenneth, the name was borne by King Kenneth MacAlpin, who lived and ruled in the ninth century. He conquered many kingdoms to found modern-day Scotland. This earned the post-humorous Scottish nickname ‘An Ferbasach,’ which means ‘The Conqueror.’ In addition to its Scottish origin, it has spelling variants in different languages, such as 'Kennart,' 'Kennerth,' 'Kennith,' or 'Kennert' in Danish; 'Cennet,' 'Kennett,' 'Cenet,' Or 'Kenett' in Swedish, 'Kenneth' in English; Kennet in Finnish; and 'Canice' or 'Cainneach' in Irish. Some notable personalities with the name are Keneth Alden Simons, an American electrical engineer known for his inventions to technical developments like cable television. Also, Trainee Keneth, a character from the video game ‘Suikoden IV.’
