Pronunciation
Proper noun
Kielo
- a female given name
2008, Sisko Istanmäki, Yöntähti, Tammi, →ISBN, pages 135–136:Kielo mietti nimeään, määrääkö se hänen kohtaloaan. Miksi hän oli saanut nimen Kielo? Ajateltiinko siinä kielon kukkaa, sehän on niin ihana. Vai kenties ajateltiin sanaa kieli. Että nimi olisi ikään kuin enne, että tuo lapsi viljelisi kieltä elämänsä aikana. Ei, sitä Kielo ei usko. Eivät hänen vanhempansa olleet niin kaukaa viisaita.- Kielo thought of her name and whether it'd determine her destiny. How had she been named Kielo? Were people just thinking of that lovely lily of the valley. Or perhaps kieli (“tongue”), that the name would be an omen for how that child would use her tongue during her life. No, Kielo doesn't believe that. Her parents weren't so foresighted.
