Names
Kiviaia (Kiviaed)
Stone wall, dry-stone wall.
Kivikülvi (Kivikülv)
Blockfield, aka felsenmeer, boulder field or stone field. An area of land or sea covered by boulders or large rocks, thought to be the result of frost weathering. True to form, Veskimetsa kivikülv is about 600 m NW at ///cobble.status.hope. For other erratic-themed locations, see Kivila.
Kivila (Kivila)
Lit. Place of the stone. Although kivila could be a contraction of kiviküla (stone village, see Hiiela for -la ending), which used to be a slightly pejorative or mocking way of saying ‘town’, reflecting the grim grey gracelessness of the Soviet-built Lasnamäe housing estates, it’s probably not, simply indicating proximity to the Mustakivi erratic boulder. Based on the above reasoning, it could also come from, e.g., kivivälja or similar, simply designating the place you to go to dig up rock, Lasnamäe is, after all, on a limestone plateau, and numerous quarries operated there in the Middle Ages, supplying Tallinn with much of its building material. For other erratic boulders or erratic-themed locations, see Rändrahnu and Kurikneeme.
Kivimäe (Kivimägi) 
Stone mountain. Named, apparently, after the mound of earthworks resulting from building the Tallinn-Keila railway. See Mäe.
Kivimurru (Kivimurd)
Quarry (lit. ‘broken stone’). One of a rock-based neighborhood. See Lubja.
Kivinuka (Kivinukk)
Stone/Stony corner (or paddock, see Tuulenurga) or, why not, ‘nook’, next to a wood of the same name attached to a former poolmõis (see Mõisa) first recorded as Ges. Kiwwiauk (1798, lit. ‘stone hole’ dependency) and thence, perhaps by an erroneous trasmission into Ges. Kiwwinuk (1871, ‘stone corner’), after a local kurisu, (from kuri, originally poor or wretched, but evolving through Bible-speak to angry, evil, devil… + suu>su, mouth, see Kura) translated variously as ‘karst gorge (cleft or clough)’ or sinkhole. Now a transport hub.
