Kiba means "fang". I think the significance is obvious.

ki means spirit "energy" and tree, and about 5 other things
Ki is pronounced "chi" i believe.
The "ki" in Kiba is pronounced differently.
actually, 'chi' is the chinese pronounciation. In japanese, "ki" is a real character which is always pronounced "ki", while "chi" is where "ti" would go, if it existed. If it's spelled "ki", then it is "ki".
I always thought it was:
Ki=fang
ba=blade
so Kiba=fang blade
