Thanks for all the comments on our girl's name list, it helped us out a LOT.
My fiance and I both decided our favorite name on our list is Vera. Then he suggested spelling it Veira. I think it looks more complete spelled that way, but I also think it looks like we just butchered a classic name and are trying to be unique. Thoughts?

This would be pronounced Veh-ee-ra, I believe.
But if your after the meaning/pronuciation of Vera - truth, faith - then maybe Verity is a more 'complete' name that could work for you two - or Veera which is the Finnish spelling.
