kevin like in “Kevin Bacon”
Kay-bin seems like the only correct way. Cabin or K’bin just feels wrong for no particular reason. The name honestly just makes me think of KDE.
I say “Kay-bee”; the n is silent
I wouldn’t trust my kids around someone that pronounces it k’bin
K’bin sounds like a Klingon name.
I thought in Klingon they pronounced those kind of names like Kay-bin
I don’t think Klingon has a K’ anywhere, in fact in Klingon it would be written “Q” and followed by some vowel, like in Qapla’ or in Qi’yaH

That’s still likely a mistransliteration (or maybe because those are proper names), but Klingon has only “q” and “Q” (which depending on the capitalization are pronounced differently, treated as different letters), technically there’s no “K” in the Klingon alphabet, you can see it in the pIqaD:

Similar as with the “f” from “Worf”, there wouldn’t be a straight “non-destructive” way to write it in Klingon.
