Since it's your name, you get to decide; but anyone who understands 
Japanese would automatically think your name meant "twisting kick" or 
something along that line. The meaning you cite is not really 
contained in the word "keri" itself; it requires the full expression 
"keri wo tsukeru" or "keri ga tsuku".

Not that any of this matters, but FYI....
