History & Origin

Khaos is a K-spelling of Chaos — from Greek khaos, 'the primordial void, the first emptiness from which all creation emerged' (the first deity in Hesiod's cosmogony). A striking, mythic, edgy word-name; the K-styling personalizes it (said 'KAY-oss').

It registers thinly in records. Very rare, the-primordial-void at the root, and edgy.
