Meaning
“Possibly bold advisor”
Traditionally explained as a Frisian short form of Konrad, itself from Old High German elements meaning 'bold' (kuoni) and 'advisor' (rat), together read as 'the bold advisor'. As with other short Frisian names built on the same first element, the exact longer name any individual bearer's Keno was shortened from cannot be established with certainty.
