Still not much closer to choosing a name, got just over 8 weeks left. Ive come up with my list of faves which are as follows...


Kia
Ayla (EY-LAH)
Isla (EYE-LAH)
Hari
Elise
Kirah
Nia
Milla (short for camilla)
Lila
Kaya
Tegan (TEY-GAN)
Teagan (TEA-GAN)
Portia
Talia (possibly short for Natalia)
Kenia
Lilly
Isabel
Brianna
Phena
Carmen
Peyton
Camille
Kayana

some i like alot more than others but may be good for middle names. I really love Hari-Elise but not many people are sharing my enthusiasm.

Constructive criticism please, cause some people are un-neccessarily harsh.... :)

SN will be Turkozu or Owen-Turkozu.

Kia -- It's pretty, but the first association is the car.
Ayla (EY-LAH) -- Eh. Not great, not awful.
Isla (EYE-LAH) -- Prefer it to Ayla, but still don't love it. Would get mispronounced a lot.
Hari - Not my taste.
Elise - Very nice!
Kirah - Don't like it.
Nia - Cute, but feels unfinished somehow.
Milla (short for camilla) - Okay, but not great,
Lila - Love it!
Kaya - Okay, but feels trendy.
Tegan (TEY-GAN) - Eh. Not my style.
Teagan (TEA-GAN) - Ditto.
Portia - Like it a lot.
Talia (possibly short for Natalia) -- LOVE.
Kenia - How do you say this? I don't think I like it if it's Kenya.
Lilly - Like a lot
Isabel - Like but very common
Brianna - Also seems common.
Phena - Don't like at all.
Carmen - Eh. Not horrible, but not my taste.
Peyton - One of the better surname names.
Camille - Like
Kayana - Not my style; feels made-up.

Of the names on the list, my favorites are Talia, Lila and Elise. Possible middles:

Talia Renee
Talia Rose
Talia Siobhan
Lila Marie
Lila Elise
Lila Isabel
Elise Rose
Elise Payton
Elise Camille

Unfortunately, Hari reads too much like Harry or Hairy for me to like it. My favorite from the list is Elise.

[zorianna.livejournal.com]

Geez, with only 8 weeks left, that's a big list! LoL

Kia - Not bad, but too short. It seems unfinished.
Ayla (EY-LAH) - I actually like this one.
Isla (EYE-LAH) - I like this too, but like someone said, be prepared for lots of people to mispronoince it when they see it, and not know how to spell it when they hear it.
Hari - How is this pronounced? Harry? Hah-ri? I don't know, I don't really like it.
Elise - Great middle name.
Kirah - I like the name, but I'm not keen on that spelling.
Nia - Same as Kia
Milla (short for camilla) - I don't like this one.
Lila - Very pretty.
Kaya - I like it.
Tegan (TEY-GAN) - Not my style.
Teagan (TEA-GAN) - Not my style.
Portia - Gorgeous.
Talia (possibly short for Natalia) - Love it.
Kenia - Not my style.
Lilly - LOVE IT.
Isabel - A little too common for me.
Brianna - NO! Personal association, though. LoL
Phena - Never heard this. Don't particularly like.
Carmen - Not my style.
Peyton - Probably my favorite on your list!
Camille - Sounds too old for me
Kayana - Not my style.

I like Lilly Elise, Peyton Elise or Lila Elise best.

For some reason, I really like Hari-Elise =/
It remindes me of a little girl I went to camp with called Hasumi-Elise.

[trissyd.livejournal.com]

Kia - It's a vehicle brand name... no thanks.
Ayla - My boyfriend's favorite, he won't budge, I think it's alright, but since I'm more than likely going to have a daughter with this name, it's growing on me.
Isla - I like this one so much more than "Ayla", but he won't budge
Hari - Harry? No, not at all.
Elise - Pretty, but bland
Kirah - No "H" and it's nice.
Nia - It's alright I guess, not my taste
Milla - I adore "Mila"
Lila - beautiful.
Kaya - Sounds fake.
Tegan - like the other 'version' better
Teagan - like
Portia - sooo pretty
Talia - pretty
Kenia - not for me.
Lilly - one "l" and it's nice
Isabel - pretty, but soooo common... nice middle name!
Brianna - trashy to me... sorry
Phena - too odd.
Carmen - a really shitty town by where I live...
Peyton - i like this for a girl :)
Camille - ok.
Kayana - no.

Beautiful names... wow.

I really like:
Isla Elise
Mila Isabel

[smileygoldfish.livejournal.com]

Would you pronouce Nia, N-eye-ah? If so I like it, but I saw it spelled Nyah and I like that better.

My favorite out of what you have is Kirah. It soulds so sweet. I'm also a family of Talia being a nn for Natalia

[xcuore.livejournal.com]

I love; Milla Teagan Turkozu

[fantomes.livejournal.com]

I love:
Lila
Lily (with one l)
Isabel
Camille

[snailrevolution.livejournal.com]

Portia is my favorite. So pretty.

Maybe... Portia Isabelle? the vowel-sounds are different enough to me that the name doesn't run together too badly.

Maybe Portia Camille.

[krosp.livejournal.com]

Lovely names

How about....

Isla Hari Turkozu ?

[after-the-ashes.livejournal.com]

I like Talia a lot.

[randomsnowflake.livejournal.com]

I have Portia and Peyton on my lists too. They're great.

Tegan (TEY-GAN) - I know boys by this name.

Brianna - I have really bad attachments to that name so I won't answer
Phena - No
Carmen - that's okay
Peyton - Trendy, but I like it
Camille - Beautiful name
Kayana - Sounds like a spice.

With regards to the suggestion above - Lily Elise is BEAUTIFUL

[wake-tonight.livejournal.com]

I like Isla, Milla (not short for anything), Talia and Lilly. I also like Harriet - you could call her Hari though. But Hari could be a nice middle name.

I would also spell Tey-gan Taegan/Teagan and Tea-gan Tegan by default...

[smasharash.livejournal.com]

Kia - ok, but seems kind of incomplete to me
Ayla (EY-LAH) - really lovely
Isla (EYE-LAH) - also gorgeous
Hari - seems incomplete to me
Elise - gorgeous
Kirah - ok, but a bit trendy for my taste
Nia - same as Kia
Milla (short for camilla) - really lovely, but would be incomplete if it was just Milla and not short for Camilla (does that make sence?)
Lila - ok
Kaya - ok
Tegan (TEY-GAN) - this is my guilty pleasure name, I can't decide if it's too trendy or gorgeous :/
Teagan (TEA-GAN) - same as Tegan
Portia - really trashy, to me
Talia (possibly short for Natalia) - lovely, especially short for Natalia
Kenia - is this pronounced like Kenya, the country? I don't know...
Lilly - gorgeous, but so popular!
Isabel - again, gorgeous but too popular
Brianna - I don't like it
Phena - I don't like it
Carmen - seems kinda trashy to me
Peyton - seems too masculine, and quite trashy too
Camille - lovely
Kayana - I don't like it

So, I like Isla, Ayla, Elise, Camilla/Milla, Natalia/Talia, Camille.
And if popularity doesn't bother you then Lilly and Isabel, or they'd be good middle names?

Teagan Isabel
Natalia Lilly
Elise Isabel
Ayla Elise

[heathity.livejournal.com]

Lila
Teagan
Talia
Lilly
Isabel

Those are the names I like :)
