Layla

hownottofuckup · 28/08/2016 13:48

Layla (spelt that way in homage to Eric Clapton Wink )
Can't abide Ciara/Kiera I thinks it's a horrible ugly name.
Eden's OK, neither good nor offensive, just fine.

Ciara or Keira

SteviebunsBottrittrundle · 28/08/2016 13:43

Yes, Ciara is an Irish name. Pronounced Kee-ra. Some people use the same spelling and pronounce it differently, (I've heard it pronounced like Sierra), but not by anyone in Ireland.

CatNip2 · 28/08/2016 07:49

Ciara, spelt this way, I know one, lovely.

thepurplehen · 28/08/2016 07:38

Ciara

Minirocky · 28/08/2016 07:10

Layla is a beautiful name!

TheFirie · 28/08/2016 07:02

CorkieD I didn't know it! How fascinating, the same name at the opposite side of Europe

QuodPeriitPeriit · 28/08/2016 06:59

Ciara, spelt this way. It was on my short list of girl's names (which we didn't end up needing) - would love to see it used.

Caldini22 · 28/08/2016 06:51

Ciara.

CorkieD · 28/08/2016 06:44

Ciara is an Irish name whereas Chiara is Italian and are different names with different pronuciations.

Stellabystarlight · 28/08/2016 06:32

Leila or Ciara both look and sound nice. The other spellings are fine too.

I really don't like Eden.

TheFirie · 28/08/2016 06:15

Shouldn't Ciara be spelled Chiara to have the /k/ sound? It is an Italian name and the right spelling is with CH

VioletBam · 28/08/2016 06:03

I thought it was pronounced Kee-ara. Am I the only one?

CakeRattleandRoll · 28/08/2016 06:01

Ciara

ExcellentWorkThereMary · 28/08/2016 00:50

I love the name Layla. Eden to me is a boys name.

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 28/08/2016 00:38

Clara. Really dislike Layla, sorry.

NoncommittalToSparkleMotion · 28/08/2016 00:37

Eden

AmyC86 · 28/08/2016 00:35

Leila pronounced Lee-la

firawla · 28/08/2016 00:30

Layla

TwoLittleBlooms · 28/08/2016 00:27

I really like the name Leila.

Ankleswingers · 28/08/2016 00:19

I think Ciara is gorgeous, so pretty Smile

Maggie2828 · 28/08/2016 00:14

Layla/ Leila is lovely, with either spelling. Not so keen on the other two.

EllenDegenerate · 27/08/2016 23:52

Ciara

Eden is lovely but I only know male ones.

Well, Keira tends to come from Keir. Kiera tends to come from Kieran. Keira is a little bit more popular, I believe that's due to the actress (yet her name was a spelling mistake) Smile
