Jinn from Djinn, an Islamic concept of "evil genies" who meddle in the affairs of humans. Also a summon in the early Final Fantasy II days, was either Ifrit or Jinn depending on the translation.
Kai from randomly mashing the keyboard when Jinn was taken on an MMORPG I played at the time. It just stuck. Turns out it's a word with a lot of meanings - my favorite being a 'type of throat singing used by indigenous peoples.'
