To sign the name 'Kyra', you will fingerspell each letter. Start with the letter 'K', holding up your index and middle fingers with your thumb resting between them. Next, form a 'Y' by extending your thumb and pinky while keeping your other fingers curled. Then, cross your index and middle fingers for the letter 'R'. Finally, make a fist with your thumb resting against the side of your index finger for the letter 'A'.
Fingerspell K-Y-R-A, then sign 'my' by placing a flat hand on your chest, and 'sister' by bringing an 'L' handshape from your chin down to your other 'L' handshape.
Sign 'I', then 'look for' by circling a 'C' handshape in front of your face, and finally fingerspell the name K-Y-R-A.
Sign 'You', 'see' (using a 'V' handshape moving away from your eyes), fingerspell K-Y-R-A, and sign 'today', making sure to raise your eyebrows to indicate a yes/no question.

Yes, unless you are referring to a specific person named Kyra who has been given a unique name sign by the Deaf community. Otherwise, fingerspelling is the standard way to introduce the name.
Focus on clarity over speed. It is better to fingerspell slowly and clearly so the other person can read the letters easily. Speed will naturally come with practice and muscle memory.
No, you should not mouth the individual letters (K-Y-R-A). Instead, you can naturally mouth the full name 'Kyra' as you fingerspell it.
