I know a lot of people who are having babies! Here are some recent editions

I know one girl who is expecting her first child (a girl) and the planned name is Lilyan. I really don't like the y there, but what I thought was really interesting is that, as some of you may remember, I have another pregnant friend naming her daughter Lilyth. I know the girls know each other, but don't know if ones name choice influenced the other.

Born May 30th, a boy, Jason Elliot (Parents: David and Laura, brother: Cayden ) I personally like Jason much better than Cayden
And then my cousin (Brett) and his wife (Keturah) just had their first child, a girl, Anaiah Marie. I'd never heard the name Anaiah before, but googling it brings up this site:http://www.bible-history.com/smiths/A/Anaiah/ I completley expected them to pick a more obscure Biblical name, both are very religious, and given his wife's name, it seemed fitting. I do like the sound Anaiah, I'm mostly just glad they didn't name her Victoria Marie, because I want that name!

any thoughts?

I very much like the sound, but I think I dislike the spelling. I'm not sure how it should be spelled, though.

I don't like Lilyan or Lilyth at all. Lillian and Lilith are gorgeous, though.

I actually really like Anaiah! It's really pretty. I'm not a huge fan of Marie, though. I think I would have gone with something that's more of an alternative to Anaiah if she doesn't like the obscurity/unusualness of her name. Something more go-byable, since Marie is just so middle name-ish.

Jason is very 1980s to me, but I like it with Elliot and it's much much much better than Cayden (ugh).

Jason Elliott is my top boy's name, but I spell it with 2 T's instead of 1.
