I heard the name Hadley the other day and I absolutely loved it. What do you think? and what middle names go well with Hadley. I also have really started liking Anastacia/Anastasia but I don't know which spelling is better.

Not too sure about Hadley, it makes me think of Tony Hadley of Spandaeu Ballet fame! I think it needs a shorter middle name like Kate, Faith, Jade, Paige or Rose.

LOVE Anastasia (that spelling.) It's really pretty and also shortenable to 'Anna' is she chose to :)

I'm not big on Hadley although I like it better than some of the other names that sound similar that are popular now-a-days (like Haley). If Hattie could be a nn for it, it would be even better.

I really like Anastasia.

A friend of mine from high school has a little girl named Hadley. Hadley Michelle.

I know a Hadley Wren, and she's just adorable. I think the name is nice!

I knew a Hatley growing up and I always loved that. But I've only ever heard Hadley on one person, a singer named Hadley Fraser. I kind of like it though.

I LOVE Anastasia or Anastacia. I think either spelling is lovely, but the former is easier because that's what people will guess first.

I love the name Hadley, but for girls only.

Hadley is way too close to Hagley for my taste. Blech.

Hadley is a (very) guilty pleasure name for me. I'm not sure what the appeal is exactly but I do like it.

Anastasia is my favorite spelling, though either works well. I really love the name!

I dislike Hadley. I don't think it sounds feminine at all. It's right up there with Harper in terms of dislike for me.

I like Anastasia though.

I would pronounces Anastasia and Anastacia differently (the first one ends with the continent sound Asia, and the second with aa-see-uh to me), so if you prefer one pronunciation over the other, maybe that could help to dictate spelling.

I dislike Hadley - it blends into the sea of Hayley Kayley sort of samey sounding names that I have a hard time remembering. It's also completely unfeminine, but that's an in sort of thing now.

I think Hadley Helen might be nice, though.

i like Anastasia (that spelling) though i used to like it more, i think

I don't like the name Hadley, at all.

I've loved the name Anastasia since I read the BSC books. As for the spelling...I'd pronounce them different, so to me it depends on which pronunciation you're going for.

Anastasia, to me, would end sounding like "Asia", the continent. I'm not sure of the letters I'd use to describe the exact sound.


Anastacia, to me, would end in a "sha" sound.
