"Ki" also means "who" in Persian-Farsi ("کی"). Looks neat, just wanted to add some random related trivia.

"Qui" (pronounced ki) also means "who" in French. I wonder if they're related.

French and Farsi (Persian) are both IndoEuropean languages. So yes, they are related. If I'm reading it right, the Proto-IndoEuropean word for "who?" is /kwis/.
