Jayden
Makayla
Makenna
Alyssia

my boyfriend has three other kids there names are

Austin Michael
Cameron James
Emily Jade

I like Jayden also.. could be a boy or a girl name

Jayden Michael for a boy sounds good together; as does Jayden Marie for a girl

personally, im not a fan of then whole -aden,-ayden thing. It's really popular now so if you name her Jayden, theres a good chance there will be both boys and girls with the name Jayden or Kaden, or whatever have you.

I do like Alyssia a lot though.

ahahahaha, I LOVE your icon. I've been watching conan lately just to see that sketch! :D

I think Jayden is good too, but I think all the names you picked out are going to be pretty popular. Maybe you should try a different spelling, like Jaiden or Jadyn. If you like Makayla, maybe you like Micah too? Alyssia is sweet but maybe you could try Alysan or Arissa. And middle names for Jayden:

Jayden Arie (I hate Marie as a middle name, everyone has that as a middle name.)
Jayden Elijah (I like boys names for girls too)
Jayden Shay
Jayden Emily *an homage to her sister*
Jayden Kelis
Jayden Rae
Jayden Amaya

Lots of things sound good with Jayden!

Everyone I know seems to be naming their kid Jayden lately

Yeah- I second that- me included LOL I had only ever heard of one other Jaden, and that was 3 years ago, now there are TONS of them around :( We named our daughter Jaden Makayla - she was born in January. Jaden was the 75th most popular BOY name in 2004. And I know several Jayden's that are boys- everybody was like that is a boys name, but I love Jaden (I wanted Jadyn) for a girl.

thats funny because the first name i picked out that i loved (before i found out what i was having) was Jayden Makayla. but thank you for your comments

There are also a lot of Makaylas and Makennas around too Any Mc name is very popular nowadays

Makayla and Makenna are really popular right now. I worked at a daycare for several years and saw several girls with these names, and other variations on the "Mak" sound.

Jayden is a newer name although it could become more popular - two women I know plan on naming their daughter Jayden (or Jaiden).

I've never heard Alyssia before - it's pretty.

L.

I love the name Alyssia! I also like Jaelynn for a girl but if you go with Jayden the middle names I like are Aiyana,Eileen,Alexis,Rhianne and Olivia

those are pretty names..thanks

not trying to be a snob, because the internet sure can make a little criticism sound that way, but those 4 girl names you wrote are VERY popular. maybe not the exact spelling, but that's why a lot of parents think they're giving their child a unique name, but it's actually a very very popular one with one letter changed.

how about jada? Makayla has a bit of a hawaiian feel to it, maybe you want to research hawaiian names. I think you'd like some. A lot of the people in here could give you examples, too.

thanks for the hawaiian comment. i think i ll look into that. but the only problem is i dont know if i say the names right. but thanks a million.

Jayden for a girl would be a change. The only time I've heard of Jayden being used is for a boy but it could work just as well for a girl if that's really the name you like.

Actually, around here anyway, those names are really popular (Jayden for both girls & boys). =/ Just a heads up.

If you like the name & can get past thinking of his ex's niece then go for it. I'm guessing you probably don't see her much if at all anyway. Then again, it might be a little confusing for your boyfriend's other kids.

My niece's name is Jayden Kay. =)
Good luck- it took us until I was 31 weeks to agree & decide on a name!

yeah i see his ex...every weekend..twice a weekend. when we get his kids. but yeah. i thought about it being confussing for the kids as well. yeah i dont know anyone named jaden for a girl or boy. except on here. but thank you so much for commenting and helping.

I like Jayden (I actually prefer Jaidan, pronounced the same way) Rose. I think that'd be gorgeous :)

Also, some middle names & spelling variations for Makayla, Makenna & Alyssia:

Makayla - MaKailah, MaKayla, Mahkaila, Makaylah, Makaila, etc.
Makenna - Makena, MaKenah, Mekenah, MeKenna, Makenah, etc.
Alyssia - Elissia, Elyssia, Elisia, Alysia, Alisia, etc.

I like Makailah Rose(I love that as a middle name for so many first names)
Mekenah Braye
Alisia Cate

just some thoughts.

thank you so much for your comment. i think makailah rose is pretty. but i dont know if i like it enough for my baby. but thank you. your to sweet

awww no problem! haha it's fun playing with names :)

how about Makenna Jayde...thats pretty and sumwhat differant..

i would but..his daughters middle name is jade and i dont want his other kids name with my first baby. because thats what his wife and him picked out...so..but thank you for your comment.
