i like Aleah :o)

[elemmennope.livejournal.com]

Aleah - nms but fine

Delaney - I feel this name has a very whiny quality that I dislike. LAAAY-NEEEE. I just don't like the sound at all.

Teagan - Eh. Too cutesy. I can see it on a kid, definitely on a teenager, not so much on a respectable adult.

Paige - nms but fine

Naomi - I like this one a lot.

Naima - I'm wary of pop culture inspired names. But otherwise, I really like this. Nice sound and looks pretty too. Your average person would probably try to say it "NYE-ma" or "NAY-ma" though.

Layla - Seemingly very popular. I think it's just ok.

Caitlin - Liked it about 20 years ago. Now, 2,847,931 Katelyn/Caitlyn/Keitlynnes later, I feel pretty much like it's been done to death.

Ashling - nms but ok. The ash names always make me think of cigarette ashes.

Courtney - Very 80s to me.

Caylin - Trendy Caitlin knock-off.

Me too, i do like the Aliyah spelling, but i think this looks more like it should be pronounced ah-liar

I saw a little girl at the playground named Delaney! :) She was so cute.

I love the name Paige

I love the name Layla. Very cute, but becoming popular unfortunately.

Aleah - I like the spelling to it, it's very unique. It's also a name that stands out from the crowd

Delaney - This is the cutest girl name ever. Seriously. I LOVE this one.

Teagan - You could also spell it as Tegan. I really like it because I don't really know anybody by that name, or babies with that name.

Paige - How adorable. I've always loved this name.

Naomi - It depends on her middle name. Another name close to Naomi is Nadia

Naima - Easy for us to pronounce now, but later down the road how many people do you think are not going to say it right? I like it's originality though

Layla - Eric Clapton wrote a love song to Layla, George Harrison's wife. That to me is crazy, and that's what that name remains me of. There is a girl in my class named, Leela (Lee-La)

Caitlin - I can see that you might opt to nickname her Katie, but this is a very popular name.

Ashling - This one has a significance to it, that is why I like it a lot.

Courtney - There are different ways of spelling it. Such as, Kyrtney or Kourtney. But again, very popular.

Caylin - This is original. I like it. It can also be spelled as: Kaylin, or Kaelin

Naima is a common Arabic name, same as Aliyah ( however you want it spelled) as well as Layla

Before you use Ashling as a middle name, I'd ask your aunt and/or uncle if it is okay first.
Although its sweet you want to use it to honor her, the name usually brings up a lot of pain and they *might* be offended/betrayed if you used it for your own child as their middle name.
