I just found out how my fiance's niece's name is spelled. I thought they'd picked out a nice name.
However.....


Chloee Jayde


Yeah... my fiance's older sister wanted, "to be different."

I told my fiance that our children will NOT be having names with pointless "e"s and extra "y"s thrown in just for the fun of it. He completely agreed. :)
First pick for a girl is currently Samantha.
Chelsea is a close second.
No middle names yet.

We still can't agree on any boy names. Good thing we have a year or two.

Chloe looks like it would be pronounced the normal way, KLOE-ee. but Chloee looks like it would be kloe-EEEEEEEEEEEEEEE with major emphasis on the EEEEEEEEEEE.

I've never liked Jade, and extraneous y's are hideous, so Jayde is my nightmare.

Samantha and Chelsea are, to me, really mid-1980s, but better than Chloee.

That's exactly what I thought when I saw it!

And that's odd since the only Chelsea I know was born in the 70's. And I don't know any Samantha's. Heh. Oh well! :)
