Keiontae is a contemporary given name of African American origin, a variant spelling of Kevin. It gained popularity during the late 20th century and has since been used consistently, although it remains relatively uncommon compared to more traditional names like Kevin or Jamal. The name Keiontae consists of two elements: "Kei" from the Irish name Kevin, which means "handsome" or "noble," and "-onta(e)" as a suffix, often associated with African American vernacular names. This unique combination gives Keiontae a distinct sound and cultural identity.
"Keiontae has seen a steady popularity over the years with spikes in births occurring between 1994 and 2003, again in 2011, and most recently in the early 2020s."
