I like for a girl......

Devon
Eden
Miley
Jessica
Ivy

We have a double barrelled surname so didn't really want to have a middle name and make it a tongue twister to say! The curse of the double barrelled ay! :)

Let me know what you all think or if you have any more suggestions :)

P.S....we have a 10 month old called little boy called Reagan so it would have to be something that sounded nice together

Thanks!

I like jessica and Ivy

TheLaineyWayIsEssex · 25/01/2012 23:22

Eden is nice
Jessica is pretty
not too keen on Miley (only because of Miley Cyrus though)

will have a think for more suggestions

CanadaCalls · 25/01/2012 23:23

Thanks :)

Im not too sure on Jessica but OH likes it. Miley, as you said, reminds me of Miley Cyrus.

I do really like Devon and Eden but dont think DP is a fan of names that are 'too' unusual!

Eden! I want one so much!!!

ChaosTrulyReigns · 26/01/2012 00:47

They're all rather nice.

When are you due?

ivy or eden

lisaro · 26/01/2012 00:59

Jessica and Ivy are ok, the others are really, really bad IMO.

CheshireDing · 26/01/2012 05:58

I love Devon. Yes it's unusal but that depends if you are feeling a bit brave :)

barbie1 · 26/01/2012 06:04

My dd is a Devon, so I would vote for that Wink

Montsti · 26/01/2012 09:50

Sorry none to my taste, but my favourite of your list is Eden.

tammytoby · 26/01/2012 12:00

Reagan and Eden are a little similar imo.

I prefer Reagan and Miley or Ivy.

mamaLou13 · 26/01/2012 12:15

absolute NO to Devon but i quite like jessica, classic and timeless.

marshmallowpies · 26/01/2012 12:19

Don't like Miley at all, I'm afraid, it's not a 'real name' as far as I'm concerned, it's a nickname.

Jessica is very nice, we won't be using it as our surname is so common, but if yours is double barreled it shouldn't be such an issue.
I tend not to like very short names (Amy, May, etc) so I'd never choose Ivy, but again with a long surname like yours it might go quite nicely.

rockdoctor · 26/01/2012 12:20

I know a Devon and several Jessicas and like both - but Jess/Jessica is getting quite popular around here. Not keen on Miley and Ivy. Wish I'd thought of Eden - lovely name and unusual

EdithWeston · 26/01/2012 12:21

Devon - doesn't do it for me, sorry
Eden - traditionally a boys name, so could be a good fit for you as it's the same pattern as using Reagan on a boy.
Miley - don't like (Cyrus)
Jessica - like
Ivy - not to my taste, but a perfectly good name

notso · 26/01/2012 12:29

Devon and Miley are too Disney Channel for me, sorry.

Love, love, love Ivy but do you mind about Beyonce?
Jessica I like, not sure about Eden, sometimes I like it sometimes I don't it isn't one I would use.

Polkadotfanatic · 26/01/2012 12:29

None of your names are to my taste (please dont call your child Miley - it will date horribly and there is a pic today of a certain MS Cyrus attempting to fellate her boyfriend's phallic shaped birthday cake...just sayin')

Eden would be the only one I would consider.

Good luck with the kids x

Out of that list the only one I like to any degree is Ivy and even that's not very nice. Sorry.

MrsDobalina · 26/01/2012 18:33

I only know a male Devon, I hasn't realised it was unisex! I love Eden and know 1 male and 2 femaie Edens. But my favourite from your list is definitely Ivy.

Sinople · 27/01/2012 12:27

Jess, not so sure about the others

PopcornBiscuit · 27/01/2012 19:05

Ivy or Jessica.

Or even Ivy Jessica :)

pilates · 27/01/2012 19:17

Love Jessica/Jess/Jessie.

Dislike Ivy

fruitbat2008 · 27/01/2012 19:17

I love them all but I love Eden the most haven't heard that name before just like my daughters name Melody she is the only one in her school. xx

Clareypen · 27/01/2012 19:18

Miley is hideous.
Jessica is gorgeous and cute, Ivy is quite sweet too.
I like Devon, knew a wee tot called Devon once- but it was a boy.
