Sadie or Stella are my favourites. Grace as mn.

taylorlynn · 13/05/2019 12:44

I like Piper & Stella best

AndItStillSaidFourOfTwo · 13/05/2019 12:26

Adrian for a girl? Adrienne's nice. Use that instead.

The only one I (relatively) wholeheartedly like is Sadie Joyce.

MikeUniformMike · 13/05/2019 12:18

Stella Kate* - ok. Both nice names
Laela Joy* - Not heard of Laela before - will get spelt Layla
Skye Juliet* - nice
Scout Kathleen - Scout gets a no from me - too nicknamey, to TKAM
Mila Rose - boring
Piper Jane - Piper Alpha
Shay Lynn - no
Emersyn Grace* - no. Emersyn looks like a brand name for medicine
Adrian Grace - Adrian is a boy's name. No
Rosalie Mae* - no. Mae is a bit tacky.
Melia Rose - probably lots of girls called Amelia Rose which is nicer
Sadie Joyce - ok
Colbie Sue - no
Livia Sue* - So many Olivias.

Several of the one-syllable names could be seen as "filler" middle names. There are about 12 which always come up, such as Grace, May, Kate, Faye. The modern equivalent of Anne, Louise or Jane.

BuffySummerss · 13/05/2019 11:26

Stella Kate is lovely
Mila Rose
Piper Jane
Rosalie Mae
Sadie (but not with Joyce)
Olivia (but not Livia or Sue)

Mila Rose
Sadie is nice but the others are not to my taste

BelulahBlanca · 13/05/2019 07:28

Stella Scout is beautiful

TatianaLarina · 13/05/2019 07:25

Shay Lynn sounds like a Buddhist monk

Or a C&W singer.

TatianaLarina · 13/05/2019 07:25

Stella or Rosalie for me. Also like Livia.

The names to ditch for being godawful are:

Scout
Piper
Shay
Emersyn
Adrian
Melia
Colbie

PlatypusLeague · 13/05/2019 07:20

Stella Juliet
Rosalie Skye
Sadie Kathleen
Skye Olivia

MrsBertBibby · 13/05/2019 04:38

Shay Lynn sounds like a Buddhist monk.

Sue Williams sounds a knight. Or swill.

HeronLanyon · 13/05/2019 02:40

I assume you are American or Canadian ?? Many are not common or popular here in uk. Adrian is a boys name.
I like Stella but not so much the others I think.
Congrats op.

MercyBodle · 13/05/2019 02:34

I like best Skye Juliet, but not Skye with sister Scarlett. I also like Piper Jane, but what about Piper Juliet for the win?

Livia is good, but not Livia Sue - Livia Juliet, Livia Kathleen, Livia Jane or Livia Scout.

Not Adrian but Adrienne pronounced the same way is the girl name. I really like Adrienne. Not keen on any of the others.

So, my favourites:
Piper Juliet (or Jane, Grace, Kathleen)
Livia Scout (or Kathleen, Jane, Juliet)
Adrienne Grace

AutumnColours9 · 12/05/2019 23:54

Skye

Whoops75 · 12/05/2019 23:51

Stella Kate* nice
Laela Joy* Laila is nicer
Skye Juliet* bit matchy with Scarlett
Scout Kathleen boys name
Mila Rose nice
Piper Jane no - dogs name (sorry)
Shay Lynn boys name
Emersyn Grace* no
Adrian Grace boys name try Adrienne
Rosalie Mae* nice
Melia Rose no incomplete name
Sadie Joyce nice
Colbie Sue Noooooooo
Livia Sue* incomplete name

Sadie and skye are nice but not with Scarlett

Rosalie and mila are nice but not as nice as your other names

I think Adrienne Williams is nicest

Sophronia · 12/05/2019 23:44

Are you American? A lot of these names sound like they’re more popular there.

I like Stella Kate best.

Bumblebeesmum · 12/05/2019 23:21

I haven’t heard of a lot of them but I think Stella is fabulous

Shadow1234 · 12/05/2019 23:12

Mila Rose is the only one I really like

Tillygetsit · 12/05/2019 23:01

Sadie Joyce is my favourite but Sadie Joy is lovely.

Wolfiefan · 12/05/2019 22:25

Adrian for a girl? Confused
Laela isn’t a spelling I would choose.
Shay always sounds like it should be short for something. Is there a longer version? The only one I’ve ever heard of was a (brilliant) character in a US drama.

Ineedamanipedi · 12/05/2019 22:22

Stella means “star” too which is lovely

Ineedamanipedi · 12/05/2019 22:21

I like Stella and Sadie the best

jcq17 · 12/05/2019 22:12

Piper and mila
