daemonomicon: Kaisa: Finnish form of Katherine, from the Greek name Αικατερινη (Aikaterine); etymology debated; it could derive from the earlier Greek name ‘Εκατερινη (Hekaterine), which came from ‘εκατερος (hekateros) “each of the two”; it could derive from the name of the goddess Hecate (associated with witchcraft, crossroads, tombs, demons and the underworld; from the Greek ‘Εκατη (Hekate), possibly derived from ‘εκας (hekas) meaning “far off.”) Or it could be related to Greek αικια (aikia) “torture”; or it could be from a Coptic name meaning “my consecration of your name.” Hester: Latin form of Esther, possibly means “star” in Persian. Alternatively it could be a derivative of the name of the Near Eastern goddess Ishtar (meaning unknown), also identified with the Sumerian goddess Inanna, (possibly derived from Sumerian (n)in-an-na, “lady of the heavens.”) Kyrillion: From the Greek name Κυριλλος (Kyrillos) from Greek κυριος (kyrios) “lord”, a word used frequently in the Greek Bible to refer to God or Jesus. Sergi: Catalan form of Ancient Roman family name, Sergius, possibly meaning “servant” in Latin but most likely of unknown Etruscan origin. Could be after the medieval Russian spiritual leader, the Venerable Sergius of Radonezh, or the Saint Sergus who was a 4th-century Roman officer martyred in Syria with his companion Bacchus; they are the patron saints of Christian desert nomads. Ragi: From Old Norse ragr meaning “craven, cowardly”.Sayan Kötör: After the Sayan Mountains and the Sakha word for “bird.” (At one point John Parry, under his alias of Stanislaus Grumman, was believed to have been killed in an avalanche on Sakhalin.) Kirjava: Finnish word for “multi-coloured” or “mottled” (also, figuratively, “chequered,“ as in a “chequered past.”)  -- source link
