We hired a new girl (late teens/early twenties) named Shilo. No H, she said so specifically. First of all, I hate that spelling. Cannot stand it. Never realized how important that H was to the whole situation. Second, I used to really like the name Shiloh, but now, after having used it a lot and knowing somebody with that name, I've started to think that it doesn't really work. It doesn't sound good to me anymore.

WDYT?

Omg @ the Chloe/Shiloh thing. It took me a second to convert it in my head.

Yep. I remember reading the Shiloh books (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shiloh_(Naylor_novel)) when I was younger, so I'll always associate that name with a beagle.

That being said, I prefer it much more with the 'H' then without. I looks too much like 'Silo' without the last 'H'
