I've been playing around with names a lot, lately. Just...thinking of some that I like, and may or may not end up using in the future. The ones I've been coming up with are ones that are very uncommon, because...I have this thing where I don't want my kids to have names that everyone else on the face of the earth has, if I can help it. So...that being said...what do you think of the following:

Girls
Lynnea
Shyla
Shayla
Dreama
Mattea
Paisley

Boys
Brenner
Kellan
Daylon
Kayne




Also, just a general question...I've noticed that a lot of people have a hatred of "y"s, and I was just wondering why? In some cases I agree that, yes, they look bad and tacky. For example, I'd never name my child Jennyfer or Chrystopher. But in some cases I think the "y" spelling is a more pleasing look (Dylan as opposed to Dillon, or Corynne as opposed to Corrine) or is equally as nice as any alternative spelling (Jordan/Jordyn, Ashley/Ashleigh, Tracy/Tracie, etc.)
