Harley is lovely. It is quite rare I belive and its not weird either.

ImightbeLulumama · 18/04/2008 18:26

i thikn poeople will presume it is shortened from something

what about lily?

janeite · 18/04/2008 18:25

I know it's not American; I was trying to find a way of describing how I feel the names as a "collection" sound, without offending Buzzybee!

How about Leah?

The onle one I like is Lexie.

Thalia/Talia is quite common now isnt it.
Not my cuppa though.

Don't like either of the boys names.

My daughters called Ebony,we shorten her's to Eby so Alexis shortened to Lexi would be lovely

Harley is nice for a boy.

Jaycee reminds me of the rapper JayZ

Ayomi · 18/04/2008 18:18

I like Thalia - more so with the h I think

MegSophandEmma · 18/04/2008 18:17

Love Lexie!! Used to have a friend called Alexis her name was shortened to Lexie

MrsMattie · 18/04/2008 18:14

Talia / Thalia is very pretty in my opinion. I thought it was Greek? Nay to the others.

ImightbeLulumama · 18/04/2008 18:14

What about:

Harry instead of Harley?

Jon or James/ Jamie instead of Jaycee

Yes i was thinking jaycee sounded a lil chavvy too. I have two weeks left,ive had 4 scans (2 growth scans) still dont know the sx! i really need some nice names

kayzisexpecting · 18/04/2008 18:11

Really dont like Jaycee

CrackerOfNuts · 18/04/2008 18:11

I know a Talia, very lovely girl she is too.

I also like Lexi and Harley, but not keen on Jaycee.

If it were me i'd go for Talia or Harley.

I really dont like the name alexandra alexia i can maybe cope with but a rreally like lexi

kayzisexpecting · 18/04/2008 18:10

I really like Lexie, we are thinking of it if we have a girl.

tiredlady · 18/04/2008 18:10

oh dear. You know; if you love them, that's great, but a lot of people may consider the boys names are a bit - you know, chavvy. Sorry I sound like a complete snob, but you did ask. On a positive note though, alexa and natalia are lovely names that can be shortened to your choices
