Baby Names

Ok, Y'all. I need anyone and everyone to de-lurk for this one!! Remember when I mentioned that I was going to be an auntie a couple weeks back? Well, my sister and brother-in-law are having a heck of a time coming up with a good "girl" name for their impending arrival. They really had their hearts set on having a boy, as there were already two beautiful girls that were part of the package when they got married. 8^) As you can imagine, they have had a "boy" name picked out for months, but the "girl" name is eluding them. Will you help? They would SOOOOO appreciate it! They do have just a couple ground rules though...

#1 The names can not start with a "K" or and "A". They already have a Kayla and an Alicia

#2 They have eliminated the name "Jordan" from the list.

So people, what do you think? Can you help? It would be so very appreciated.


Thanks!! 8^)


PS My friend Perri reminded me that a last name would be helpful here. Oops!! Their last name is Soliday (said like holiday). So, now you all can figure out what would flow nicely.

Thanks again everyone.

  7. Remember to consider what the innitials will spell out. For example, Alicia Sally Soliday would not be very nice.

    Will

  8. I don't know what's wrong with me... I've tried, but EVERY single name I think of starts with an A or K!

  11. We have friends who just named their new baby girl Tierza. Sounds like "TEAR-zuh" maybe I spelled it wrong. Anyway, I think its really pretty.

  13. My favorite name that I didn't get to use is Charlotte. I love classic sounding names. Do they want to stick with the names all ending in that soft "a" sound like Kayla and Alicia? Then maybe Emma, Jenna, Dena, or Alana.

  14. We get lots of comments on one of our daughters unique name: Hosanna Joy. We pronounce the middle ann like "on" rather than "an".

    I think it would go well with Kayla and and Alicia.
