Kylie (name)
Kylie (also spelled Kilee, Kileigh, Kiley, Kylee, Kyleigh, Kyley, or Kyly) is a feminine given name. This name could derive from two different roots: * From the Noongar, an Indigenous Australian people, from the word , meaning 'curved, returning stick, boomerang'. * From the Irish surname O'Kiely, which in turn derives from the Old Gaelic surname O'Cadhla, meaning 'graceful or beautiful', descendant(s) of the graceful one. The name became popular during the late 1960s to the early 1970s and was listed in 1970 in Australia as the fifth most popular girl's name.

Female
Female (symbol: ♀) is the sex of an organism that produces the large non-motile ova (egg cells), the type of gamete (sex cell) that fuses with the male gamete during sexual reproduction. A female has larger gametes than a male. Females and males are results of the anisogamous reproduction system, wherein gametes are of different sizes, unlike isogamy where they are the same size. The exact mechanism of female gamete evolution remains unknown. In species that have males and females, sex-determination may be based on either sex chromosomes, or environmental conditions. Most female mammals, including female humans, have two X chromosomes. Female characteristics vary between different species with some species having pronounced secondary female sex characteristics, such as the presence of pronounced mammary glands in mammals. In humans, the word ''female'' can also be used to refer to gender in the social sense of gender role or gender identity. Etymology and usage ...
