Hi everyone,
I'm due in 6 weeks and still not 100% on a boy's name. Me and my husband both like Niall but are undecided on how to spell it.

So....help me decide....would you go for Nyle or Niall?!

Definitely Niall. Is Nyle an accepted spelling?

Definitely Niall. Unquestionably, in fact.

Nyle has one syllable (and looks like you've tried to be 'indervijewel' with the spelling. Niall has two syllables and is spelled properly. So I would opt for Niall.

I got it from Nyle DiMarco who won America's next top model last year...the vote seems pretty unanimous so far! Grin

I read them as totally different names Niall (Neil) and Nyle (Nile)

He was gorgeous by the way and I love the name Nyle.

Thank goodness I'm not the only one who read them as different names! Niall is far superior to Nyle.

both fine. But how to say Nyle is a lot more obvious!!!

It isn't Caoimhe (pronounced key-va) it is Kevina, pronounced keveeena

Only ones I've come across in the last 20 years or so have all spelled it Nile.
