I big phat linguistics and etymology nerd, so i love looking that stuff up. It’s Irish so yeah, hard ‘K’ sound.

Get lost down the rabbithole of etymonline. I just wish there were more resources for languages that aren’t daughter-languages of P.I.E. But the answer to that honestly is to just learn a language like Finnish and read the sources for Proto-Uralic. Sigh, so much to learn!!
