[kdj]

having some difficulties finding a name for dd due in december.

so far we have:

Teagan
Liara
Alana
freya
lola
Alaia
Nevaeh
Lucia
Dakota

any other suggestions welcome!

Sorry but I don't like any of them.

Most of them not to my taste (sorry)

Teagan - yuk
Liara - like Liar
Alana - yuk
freya - over used
lola - nickname for Dolores/Lolita, not good.
Alaia - meh
Nevaeh - NOOOOOOO!
Lucia - not too bad.
Dakota - yuk

Alaia (Al-e-ah?) is the only one I like.

Please don't use Dakota. It would be cruel.

Alana is quite nice.

Alaia (Al-e-ah?) is the only one I like.

Please don't use Dakota. It would be cruel.

Please not Neveah!
In the same kind of vein how about
Lila
Leila
Ella

Freya
Lola
Lucia

All lovely. The rest - not so much.

What about
Lyra
Leila
Florence
Lucy
Anya
Leah
Ellen
Eleanor
Tallulah
Alice / Alicia

Teagan - very harsh sounding to me
Liara - too close to liar/lier
Alana - not keen
freya - quite pretty
lola - quite like this
Alaia - not sure
Nevaeh - as in Heaven backwards? Not sure how pronounced
Lucia - OK, but prefer Lucy/Lucie
Dakota - don't like

Only like Freya.

Hate Teagan and Dakota, sorry - and Liara sounds both made up and semi-medical.

Freya is nice

Teagan - I like the name, but not the spelling of it that you have here
Liara - Dont like
Alana - OK
freya - Nice
lola - sounds like a nick name
Alaia - Maybe
Nevaeh - No
Lucia - OK
Dakota - No

Sorry, I'm not keen on those names except for Freya. Alana is OK, but the name reminds me of Rod Stewart's first wife. Hate Lola - it reminds me of that extremely buxom woman on Eurotrash:

Lucia is OK and Dakota and Nevaeh are pretentious.

Is Nevaeh a real name or have you invented it?

LOVE Lucia. All the rest aren't great, sorry.

Teagan - nope
Liara - ok
Alana - nope
freya - absolutely not
lola - ok
Alaia - hmm, not sure about this one really
Nevaeh - sorry to sound dim but I don't know how this is pronounced so can't really comment.
Lucia - love it
Dakota - nope.

Lola is nice.

I know an Alaia. Pretty name. She is Basque, so think it might be a Basque name?

Not keen on the rest.

Like Lola, Lucia and Freya. Not too keen on the rest.

Teagan: No
Liara: No
Alana: No
freya: Ok
lola: Ok
Alaia: No
Nevaeh: No
Lucia: Ok
Dakota: No

I'm not the best person to ask as I don't like the trend for made up names etc so the Ok ones are just the ones that are 'real' names for want of a better description!

Sorry, I don't mean to rain on your parade. I'll have a think of some suggestions.

Freya, Alana and Alaia are ok, but not my really my taste. No to the rest, sorry.

What about Lyra or Liora? They are similar to Liara but without the 'liar' bit and with some history and nice meanings.

Again, Alaia sounds like 'a liar', if I'm pronouncing it correctly.

Lucia has about four standard pronunciations (Loochia, Loosia, Loothia, Loosha) which could be a big pain, and I would expect a Lucia to be Spanish or Italian.

Alana is nice, so is Freya.

Lucia is lovely but how would you pronounce it? That's quite important.

We have very different taste in names I think.

Nevaeh is a real name if by real you mean that people use it. I know a newborn Nevaeh. It was quite popular a couple of years ago. It's Not Nice.

Love Lucia - it's a beautiful name.

Lola, Alana and Freya are ok too.

I really dislike the others though sorry

Like Freya & love Lucia.
