There are lots of different ways to spell names. There is no rule to say you have to give your children boring common names.
I didnt realise i asked people to be so negative, you can give your opinion without insulting people.

Whatever you do choose, please spell it properly.

As for the names you suggested, well I guess they go with the names you have given your other children

(you did ask for honest opinions after all)

Does the way that one writes usually determine the types of names they choose for their child?

Caitlen and Bailey (i would spell it this way but up to you ) are lovely, really like lacey.

grace is a bit too popular at the moment imo stil nice though

What do you suggest then??
At the moment i like either Brooke or Georgia but im sure itl change a hundred times before she arrives.

Well, your posting style is to bend the rules orthographically speaking, so to do the same with names fits.

kittywise · 22/03/2009 20:57

They are all yuck apart from grace, which is a bit boring

cradley heath...

weird name !

hobbgoblin · 22/03/2009 20:43

They all suit you I think.

cradleyheath65111NOW · 22/03/2009 20:38

Sasha is the best one of the above - not sure whether Jade would be more or less popular now given the circumstances

traceybath · 22/03/2009 20:38

Phoebe or Hebe are both very pretty names.

MrsHappy · 22/03/2009 20:38

Sasha is a lovely name, and not very common these days.
I know a number of Mayas.

Have you considered Myla? It's still pretty uncommon but might go well with your other girls' names.

I would love more suggestions, there are alot of names i like i just want to find something i love!! It has to be something that my partner likes 2 aswell.

I like

Sasha
Jade
Paige
Mya

There are just 2 many to choose from!!!

OP posts:
Babbity · 22/03/2009 20:25

How about:
Aubrey (traditionally a boys' name but increasingly common for girls)
Alexa
Emma
Madeleine
Cara
Lauren/Laurel
Megan
Rachel
Sara
Callie

(realising that you weren't asking for further suggestions but here they are anyway!)

Babbity · 22/03/2009 20:20

Out of those, Grace is very pretty. The other two are very much not to my taste, but if you like them you should use them no matter what anyone says. Give us some ideas of other names you like and we'll see if we can give you a few more suggestions.

DSM · 22/03/2009 20:18

She didn't make negative comments about your DD, she made a comment about her name.

Anyway, echoing other posters -
Bayli - is an awful spelling
Bali - would be pronounced like the island
Grace - fine, nice
Kaitleyn - remove the 'e', fine
Caitlen - swap the 'e' for an 'a', fine

traceybath · 22/03/2009 20:15

Kathryn could be shortened to katie and is a lovely name.

TheFallenMadonna · 22/03/2009 20:13

Katie

Grumpyoldcaaaaaaaa · 22/03/2009 20:13

Well you asked for honest opinions and there does seem to be a theme..........
