Kille
I don't think it is a variation of Killoran but here is a bit of info I've located for you:
1. Kille is a variation of the Irish patronymic name Killeen , which is an Anglicized version of the Gaelic Cillin , a dimunitive form of Ceallach -- a long way of saying descendant of Kelly. John Kyllyk is the first known bearer of the name. He was a vintner in London whose will was proven in court in 1439.
