Why “Kythe”?
+
Kythe (pronounced kīth, or “k-eye-th”) has old English and Scottish roots, meaning “to make known, to manifest to the sight, to show, exhibit, discover … to present oneself or itself, to appear, to show one’s true character ‘without any guile or hypocrisy’”. It is similar to “kith and kin”, acquaintance and kinsfolk, one’s friends and relatives. We feel this closely aligns with our mission to foster meaningful connection with loved ones.
