I'm 36 weeks pregnant with my second daughter and really struggling to choose a nice cute name. It has to be a Muslim name to please my dh but I'd also like one that is almost English too - easy to pronounce and cute. My daughter is called Aalia which I really like so I'd prefer my baby's name to start with a different letter. My sons name is really difficult and nobody can pronounce it which annoys him. Thanks in advance Smile

Zahra would be nice because your girls are then a-z :)

That should have been Taalia not Talks! Although it wasn't the best suggestion as you already have an Aalia...

Leila is beautiful.
Soraya sounds so pretty and I love its meaning (Princess)

Sara(h), Laila and Yasmin(e) would probably be the easiest for English speakers.

Zahra, Hanna(h) and Nadia as well.

My favourite would have to be Maryam though, I think it's lovely and it's similar to Miriam.
