Currently 28 weeks pregnant with baby no.2 and this time we're having a little girl 💖 we already have a 3 year old little boy.

Our top favourites at the moment are:

Lyla
Wren
Ayla

But we're also looking for other suggestions of a similar vibe!

Thanks in advance xx

I much prefer Lyla to your other choices (unless you can convince him on Iris, which is gorgeous).

Thanks ladies!

I've managed to persuade my partner and he's said we can add Etta to the list 😍

I think we're between Lyla and Etta and hopefully when we meet her we'll decide which name suits her best.

Lyla or Wren

Not Wren, it’s so trendy at the moment and will date badly. It’s also lovely written down but when it’s spoken- not so nice! Ren, as in Ren and Stimpy. The idea and the look of it are so lovely compared with what the actual sound is.

Like Ayla least. Lyra nicer than Lyla. And nicer than Lulu. Lola superb in comparison to Lyla.

Thanks for all the lovely suggestions so far.

Lyla is definitely our front runner and it goes nicely with my son's name.

My only doubt is that we have quite a long surname that also starts with an L.

Too many L's?

I think it rolls off the tongue okay, I'm probably just being hormonal about it 🫠😂

I have a Lyla and she gets compliments about her name all the time.

I also love Ettie, who is one of her school friends.

Tilly

Love Lyla and Iris. Like Etta.

Not so keen on Ayla, makes me think of “ailing”. But I like Layla.

I used to really dislike Wren, until I met the seeetest little girl with that name, and now I have possible associations with it!
