What do people think? Only name both me and DH agree on liking but not sure if too associated with Miley Cyrus?

Looks like Myleene with the n missing. I wouldn't go for it either way.

No. Don't do it.

I think its actually quite pretty. I know a Thai lady called Mylee. If I saw it written down I would associate it with Asia rather than Miley Cyrus.

My first thought was "cyrus"

I do not like it.

If you like it, though, then it's your choice. At the end of the day, you have to call your child it, not us.

No.

Just No.

What is it about it that appeals to you?

ShowOfHands · 28/05/2012 21:13

I know a Mylea. It's, um, not great.

nizlopi · 28/05/2012 21:13

Awful, just awful.

I can't actually think of words or sentences strong enough to show just how bad this name is. Please do not call your child this. It is stupid.

No.

Sorry, I immediately thought of Miley Cyrus - a name which was a mispronounciation of 'smiley' made by her when she was a child.

What about Myleene? Or Maia/Maiya/Maya? (pronounced may-yah)

lovemygirlivy · 28/05/2012 20:41

I personally don't like it - but if you and dh agree like it then go for it.
Marley is nice too.

tummytickler · 28/05/2012 20:38

I think it's horrible. Sorry.

scentednappyhag · 28/05/2012 20:32

Sorry, DH* stupid eyesight!

scentednappyhag · 28/05/2012 20:32

Not my cup of tea personally, but if you and DP agree you both like it, then it's perfect for you Smile
