A misspelling of 'Keira Knightley', probably brought about because 'knightly' is a word but 'knightley' isn't. It is, however, her name. Urban Dictionary

A misspelling of Keira Knightley. "Knightly" is not her last name and if you actually liked her you would know that. Anyway, for you morons, here is a little about her. Keira is a 21 year old up and coming actress born March 26, 1985. From Teddington, Middlesex, England, she began her career at age seven appearing in television shows but her breakthrough role was in the English football-themed film, Bend It Like Beckham. It was a major success in its August 2002 UK release, and did fairly well at the box office upon its United States release in March 2003, grossing $32 million. Some of her other films include: The Hole Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl Love Actually King Arthur The Jacket Domino Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest Urban Dictionary

A Beautiful women who is talented, down to earth, wonderful, stunning, lovable, someone worth wainting for! Talent is natural for her.

A very attractive young lady who would definately get it. Walsall rules! Urban Dictionary

A skinny, talentless 19 year old who got more attention and publicity than she deserved for Bend it Like Beckham, when the real star of that film was Parminder Nagra. While Keira is pretty (no one's denying that), she cannot act at all. Her face is frozen in a blank stare in each of her films; she has the emotional range of a clothes shop mannequin. When Orlando Bloom professes undying love to her at the climax of Pirates of the Caribbean, after two hours of the pair risking life and limb for each other on the high seas, she doesn't even so much as blink. Her blank, unreactive expression appears to be the same when she is being rowed off to her death in Pirates of the Caribbean as it is in Love Actually when she learns that her husband's best friend is in love with her. Watch her closely in BILB, Pirates, and King Arthur; in all those movies she basically runs around screaming or pouting. Wouldn't exactly call it acting, though. Urban Dictionary
