To go with Callum, Ethan and Jack?

I'm lost. A lot of names I love have been discounted (names of ex foster children, who I'm in contact with still, names of relatives, and so on). I know way too many babies as every other name seems to have already been used Hmm

Any ideas?

Always loved it

I love Eve, Tara, Elsa, Zoë, Skye and Rosa.

I know a Tess and a Stella, as well as a Mae and a Hope. Maya and Iris are lovely. And Kirsten is beautiful. We know a Zara and a Cora (they're sisters!) and a Leah. Sad So many great names on here. Thanks

Just testing the water here...

My son has come up with a name for our daughter (due in December) which is Anea. We really like the sound of the name (as he is intending it) but can't work out how to spell it.

Anea is the best option but I am interested in how people would pronounce it if they saw it?

Please can you let me know if you would pronounce it An-EAR or An-EYA (as in the sound of Freya or the word Hay).

We are looking for the latter so if anyone has any other fail safe suggestions of how to write that I'd be very grateful. I love the sound but don't want to saddle the poor child with a name she is forever getting mispronounced and mis spelt.

You may be better starting a new thread for this as it might get a bit lost here. I'm Scottish, we don't add an R to the end of things, so it would be the 2nd pronunciation for me, not sure if I would spell it like that though. Is Anais the name you are thinking of?
