Hello. Not sure if I have spelt them right but just wanted to see what people thought.

Madeline - I have always loved this name. DD might have been called it but at the time there was so much going on with poor maddie macann it just didn't seem right. But the name still reminds me of her so not sure??

Layla - I really like this name but 100%. DH said its "alright" which is still an improvement to the no I usually get for names!!

Btw, we don't asctually know we are having a girl. Will find out next week but wanted to do this before I forget!

Madeleine is the usual spelling. It's quite pretty and by the time your DD grows up no one will be talking about Madeleine McCann, whatever the outcome of that tragic story is.

Layla - don't like it.
