The Back Story

When Snoke questioned his existence as a “to- be  Jedi” and pursued him to create his own identity with no hereditary derivations, He named himself Kylo which represents “the part of oneself you want to delete or cut away.” Thus, he chose to be Kylo, and not be personified as the son of a Solo or the Jedi.
