Traditionally, McKENNA has been recognized as a surname or family name (or last name). But as is the way with popular trends, expectant parents are opting to use surnames as given names (or first names). It's also important to understand that surnames as first names are not required to be family names. So if, for instance, your family names are "Baker," "Rodgers," "Smith," and "Hudson," it's quite alright to introduce a new surname (such as McKENNA) as a given name. Commonly, when used as a first name, McKENNA is chosen for a girl. But have no fear ~ it can easily be used as a boy's name, too!
