Ainsley Skye
Ainsley Grace
Ainsley Eden

those are my top 3 choices for the middle name Ainsley (in order) what do you think?

C'mon.. if I had twin girls (my ultimate dream fulfilled) and named them Ainsley Skye and Caeslin Amari.. don't they sound awesome together?

I like Ainsley Grace the best.

I don't really care for them. They would look cute on little girls, but on older mature women I don't think they'd be real great.

I know an older woman with the name Ainsley, as well as there being a character on The West Wing in her late 20s/early 30s with the name and it really does fit. It doesn't seem like it at first, but it works.

I love them all! The name Ainsley is great... I love Skye, Grace and Eden... Ainsley Eden is my favorite!

I love Caeslin Amari too!

:)

im not really sure how caeslin is pronounced, but caeslin amari looks like two made up names unfortunately smushed together.

ainsley is okay, but its one of those snooty names to me. it does sound really nice with grace though.

It's pronounced Case-lynn. It's Irish or Scottish Gaelic. The whole "made-up-ness" was discussed just a couple of weeks ago. It's not made up. It's just not common. Amari is an alternate spelling (I think it looks more feminine and less harsh) for the German boy's name Amery which means Divine or the Irish boy's name which means Ridge. It is also a surname.

You're right... Amari is a Nigerian boy's name which means strength.

Ainsley Grace. Not a huge fan of Skye and Eden doesn't sound right.

Ainsley Skye is lovely. So is Caeslin Amari. *sending twin vibes*

Ainsley Eden doesn't sound good together at all IMO.
Ainsley Grace is the best... although I really don't like the name "Grace"

I've never heard "Caeslin" before... it sounds really pretty, but I'm not sure about the spelling... but I also can't think of any better spelling, so I'll shush up. "Amari" is unqiue, I like it :)!

The original Irish spelling is Caislin. It means "little castle." Spelled Caislin, the correct Gaelic pronounciation is actually CASH-lin which I didnt know when I originally found the name. I, however, have been pronouncing it CASE-lin since I was in high school and that is the name I've fallen in love with. My husband hates the spelling Caislin and will only agree to the name if it's spelled Caeslin. (Other spellings I've considered and have failed to pass his test: Caeslyn, Kaeslin, Kaeslyn)

My only fear is that people will think the name Amari is pronounced uh-MAR-ee when it's actually AM-uh-ree.

I was pronouncing it uh-MAR-ee, and I think most people would. I think with such an uncommon name like Caeslin, it would be better to have a more classic middle name.

Too bad hubby hates that spelling... I really like it! Still a very beautiful & unique name though :)!

I like Ainsley Eden best.

Amari? ewwuu saounds like Armani but... not... & dont go using Armani either! Tackville!

They do sound good together, both trendy.

the only reason I think they sound good together is cause they're both totally trendy girly childish names. how is Amari pronounced? I'm saying it like the male name Amare: Uh-marr-ee.

AM-uh-ree

I dont know how your pronounce Ainsley.. is it ANN-SLEE ?

I like Ainsley Eden. Beautiful name. I also really like Caeslin Amari. lol.

Ainsley is pronounced "AYNE-SLEE"

I dont like the name Ainsley.. or Eden. Caeslin amari is awesome though!

I absolutely adore Caeslin Amari... I think that is great, but I'm not a big fan of the name Ainsley.

I like Ainsley & all 3 mn choices, but not together. and I like Amari, but only pron. the way you pron. it (AM-uh-ree). maybe there is another way you could spell it so it was clearer how to pron it? I don't like Caeslin & def not Caeslin Amari together.

I like Ainsley best with Grace, out of those, but Skye is nice too. Really, they all work.
