How would you pronounce Breigha if you saw it?
What do you all think of the name Ambrie?
And what about Eden?
Any good middle names to go with Eden or Ambrie?

I'd pronounce it Bree-ah. I like it.

Ambrie is not my taste

Eden I like.

1. Bray-uh
2. I dislike names that sound like two more traditional names combined - Janessa, Jennica, etc. Ambrie falls into this catagory for me Amy+Brie(anna) It is pretty, just not my style. Hmm - I do like Ambria though - sounds more complete to me.
3. I like Eden. Here are some middle names:
Eden Claire
Eden Elizabeth
Eden Jane
Eden Eleanor
Eden Adele
Eden Ambria?

1. Bree-ah
2. I don't like it at all.
3. I don't like it, but every Eden I know is fantastic, so I have good connotations for it.
4. I like Eden Michaela.

I'd say Bree-uh, like I'd say Lee for Leigh.
But I'm sure it violates some phonetic rule there :P

Ambrie is not bad, maybe a nickname for Amber
Eden is quite cute and exotic

Eden is quite a hard name to pair with another name because so many associations stem from it. I can't think of names who make a decent combination, because I'm like "Eden Claudia, or Eden Elizabeth" just have nothing in common to belong together.

I like Ambrie Virginia.

I'd pronounce it Bree-ah. It's a pretty ok name =)
& I don't like Ambrie all that much, which is strange, 'cause I do like Aubrey.
& I quite like Eden.
Ambrie Joanne
Eden Louise

My gut instinct is actually brayga
But I would assume it was meant to be bree-uh or bray-uh

I like the spelling Bria much better. having a "gh" in a name is something I really don't like. It just looks ugly to me. I suppose it might remind me of words like "cough" or "ugh". I don't even like it in Leigh even though that is the most legitimate female spelling of that name.

Ambrie, I don't really have any opinion of, I've never heard it before so I'd think it was made up but it's not as bad as some other names that sound made up.

I'm also quite neutral to Eden.

I would pronounce it 'BRAY-uh'.

I dislike both Ambrie and Eden.

I wouldn't pronounce it. I would probably retch on the spot.

Ambrie - Neh
Eden - Weh

Bray-ah (the first part rhymes with Neigh)
Ambrie I don't like and Eden is pretty but not my style.

"Br.... wait, how do you say that?"

> What do you all think of the name Ambrie?

Doesn't feel complete. It's like a glueing-together of names that were popular in the 1990s (Amber + Brianne). Also reminds me of embryo.

> And what about Eden?

Better. The spelling is clear from the pronunciation (and vice-versa) so she won't have to spend her life explaining it.


Given the names you like, I wonder if you would like Cambria, called Bria or Bree for short?

Bree-ah
Ambrie- reminds me of Embryo.
Eden- garden of Eden.

bree-ah, i don't like it.
ambrie is kind of cool, but as some one said before, i like ambria better.
i like eden, but it is so directly biblical, i like it better as a middle name.

Well Leigha is a decent spelling, I just don't like how it looks because I don't like the gh. At least it's less confusing than Leah, for some reason a lot of people can't tell how to pronounce that spelling.

I don't think many other people mind gh in names anyway it's probably just me :)

Thanks. Eden Elizabeth is my favorite. I read your blog - I am not a teen mom, but I wanted to wish you good luck and hope that you are finding the support that you need. If you need someone to write to send me a message :)

I know someone named Eden Estelle. I think it's very pretty. :o) I also like Eden Elizabeth. Eden just sounds like it needs another "e" name to go with it...

Breegga? I'm guessing it's not supposed to be said like that, but if I saw it, I'd FULLY assume the parents were doing the trendy Celtic "but actually it's pronounced totally differently" thing. It just looks like that, y'know?

Ambrie... I'm with the above. Sounds a bit contrived and awkward.

Eden is nice. Eden Yvonne? Eden Isolde? Eden Ophelia?
