Is the name Skyla (and yes it can be spelt this way) really that bad??
I have had so many mixed reactions to this name for a girl, mainly negative, but i really like it and don't seem to like any other name.
I really like the unusual girl's names, and i called my first Summer and it really suits her.

There's a kid at my friend's school called Skyla Blue. Her sister is called Heaven Lee. :)

Onion1968- There is no rule on how many posts you can make and it seems to me that you don't have a good word to say on anyone's posts.
Your obviously only on here for one reason and it's certainly not looking up ideas on names!!!

Sum04, I have actually said lots of good things about other people's name choices - and yes I have given honest opinions on names that I don't like. I know there is no limit to the amount of posts, my point was that you asked what people thought and they gave you their opinions which seemed to be mostly against the name (with a preference for Skye). You then posted twice more and the reponse was similar. I was only making the point that people have given their opinion and that you need to either go with your heart and choose it or, listen to the advice.

I don't like Skyla. I keep seeing various threads on here about this name ( is it super popular or just the 1 poster?) and each time it grates on me just a little bit more. It's abit trying too hard for me.

And G&S reference just makes me smile.

Heaven Lee - I snorted out loud then. Grin Brilliant

I like Skyla.. Always have since watching the film 'Good Will Hunting' (Matt Damon, excellent film one of my all time favourites!) His love interest in the film (played by Minnie Driver) is called Skyla.
Onion1968 I think it is ok to post something important on here a few times, you may just get some different perspectives that will help you make a decision! I've not read a post about this before.There are always new people joining who have an opinion. People don't have to respond if they have had enough of it, it's an open forum. That's why MN is so good isn't it?

Reminds me of the baddie with the eyebrow on Heroes.

I like Skye though. Skye and Summer sound nice together.
