My boss' son had a baby last year and his step-daughter had a baby a couple of weeks ago, both girls.

WDYT of the names: Keira Alexis Anne & Jordan Cadence?

I'm iffy.

Ugh. I like Alexis Anne, I don't really like the double middle name for some reason, which is weird, because I usually do. I have a 2X MN, and my kid likely will, too.

Also, since when is Cadence a name? Is it the kre8tyve way to spell Candace these days? I mean, in addition to all the trashy spellings that already exist?

[sarahrose.livejournal.com]

It's a different name than Candace all together.

Cadence, like in music/language. :)

[cluckydude.livejournal.com]

Right, I get that. But since when is it a name?

I know what the word means, I just wouldn't want to name my kid...um, pace, basically, though I suppose that's a name, too.

[sarahrose.livejournal.com]

I think of the salsa for Pace, lol.

[rockstargrrrlie.livejournal.com]

It seems like it's gotten really popular in the last few years, probably riding off of the "kay-" names trend (kaylee, kaylyn, caitlin, etc.).

My little sister had a friend named Cadence who was born in 88 or 89, so I know at least someone was using it back then, but I also remember her being the only person with that name then.

I realized Cadence was being used as a name sometime last spring, and thought I'd died and gone to hell. Now I'm used to it, but it's still very meh.

[cluckydude.livejournal.com]

of course not. I don't even know if there is a public entry, but if not - swing me an e-mail cluckydude@gmail.com

[sarahrose.livejournal.com]

LOL, never thought of it like that - Kay dense.


See, I come from the philosophy that words can be names.

:-D

Jordan is kind of eh to me - overused. Cadence is nice, but I prefer K's.


Keira Alexis is nice! That's the exact name my sister (who is ttc) was thinking for a girl.

[sarahrose.livejournal.com]

Jordan is very much a girl's name to me now and Alexis always was.

[sarahrose.livejournal.com]

To me, I said/meant. Sorry if that wasn't clear.

[aintlifesosweet.livejournal.com]

Keira Alexis Anne I like.

I don't like Jordan Cadence, I think it's too trendy.

[elemmennope.livejournal.com]

Absolutely NMSAA.

But at the same time I don't think they are awful. Just about as far from my taste on the scale of decent names as you can get, imo anyway.

[turabiannights.livejournal.com]

Jordan still seems so boyish to me. When I first saw these names, I thought to myself, "Uh oh. Someone used Cadence on a boy!"

[lilfaeriegirl.livejournal.com]

i know someone who used kadence on a boy, they call him kade for short.

[sotypical42483.livejournal.com]

They're both very trendy, but I do love Keira. I hate Jordan on a girl and I hate Cadence.

[danacarlesays.livejournal.com]

I'll be honest, I cant stand any of them. Ive never liked Jordan as a girls name, nor Cadence. I dont even know where to begin with the first name.

[septembergrrl.livejournal.com]

Neither is really my taste. Keira isn't awful, though I prefer the spelling Kira.

[pearshateraqui.livejournal.com]

Keira Alexis is lovely!! I think I prefer Kira, but the whole name flows wonderfully! :D That's my favourite of the pair. Jordan Cadence ... is not my style I don't think.
