You have a wonderful combination of classic and unique names :) All very pretty. There are two little girls at the school bus stop that are from the Ukraine there names are Nicolette and Pollianna. You name Nicoletta reminded me of them. They are very pretty sweet girls.

leah really isn't that popular... it came in at #68 for 2005, whereas mia is #17 and victoria is #28. anyway, i really like bella, eloise, and juliet. :) i really don't like the spelling of taelor... is there a significant reason why it's spelled that way or you just prefer it that way?

[tallc00lone.livejournal.com]

My old therapist's name was Mollie Taelor, and I adored her. Hence, the spelling.

I was going to say that about Leah. It's really not that popular. It's my name and when I was younger, I hated it because it was SO uncommon. It makes me chuckle to think the OP thought it was so popular.

[tallc00lone.livejournal.com]

I have 2 Leahs in my math class, a Lia in my choir, a Lea in my history class, and a Leigha in my show choir. I also know various other people with nns of Leah/Lia/Lea such as Annalia, Olivia (your guess is as good as mine), Ophelia and Kaylie.

[solyma.livejournal.com]

wow i'm surprised by that, but even so, that doesn't mean it will be popular when you have children in a few years, ya know? but i guess knowing so many people with that name would make you less inclined to use it. and getting leah/lia out of olivia and kaylie?! whoa... haha :\

[lovablemess.livejournal.com]

That's surprising to me. Maybe it's local. I think I know one or two other girls named Leah/Lia in my town and the general vicinity around my town.

[solyma.livejournal.com]

it's my name and i hated that when i was little, too! i always wanted a pencil (and other things) with my name on it and they never had 'em. ;P

[lovablemess.livejournal.com]

Haha- I will still go into those touristy places just to see if it shows up on a personalized magnet or license plate. Sometimes it does, and I usually buy it!

my name is jordan (i'm a girl) and they never had my name in the pink, only blue or with a truck, etc.

[d3v0.livejournal.com]

Devan is my name :D
yay. love you.

but I don't see Devan as a name thats just for little kids, it actually sounds mostly early twenties to me.

[dancing-crazy.livejournal.com]

I really like a lot of your list. I have to ask about Gracen though, as I couldn't find it on any name site. I've never heard it before, either. Is it just an English variation of Grace?

I was surprised not to see Anna on the names you wouldn't use due to popularity. It's ranked 20 now, and I know SO many girls names Anna, it's horrible. I hate it--it's one of my favourite names. I'm really getting into Bethany, as well.

It's actually a boy's name, but I think it sounds nice for a girl,so I altered the spelling.

[itcouldbelove.livejournal.com]

One of my mom's friends recently had a baby girl and named her Gracen. I love the name Grayson for a boy, and I love Grace for a girl, but Gracen doesn't thrill me, though I can see why someone would like it.

Caelan is currently my number 1 favorite name, spelled that way! That's the only way I like it spelled too. Hopefully it doesn't become too popular before I have kids (around 10 years from now). Right now it's definitely not popular in my area.

[tallc00lone.livejournal.com]

It's one of my faves also. I love it for a boy, but since other variations (Kaylyn, etc.) are girl names, I think he'd get made fun of. =/

[smasharash.livejournal.com]

I like:
Georgia
Grace (but also wouldnt use due to popularity)
Hayley - but prefer it spelt either Haley or Hailey, also wouldn't use due to popularity
Leah
Mia - but it's way to popular in britain now

[tallc00lone.livejournal.com]

I love Hayley, but for the same reasons as you I wouldn't use it. You like it spelled those ways? I usually prefer the classic spelling of things, which is why I probably like it spelled Hayley.

[smasharash.livejournal.com]

I have a really good friend who spells it Haley, so that's kind of the norm for me.
