Hi all,
Ive narrowed soon to be dd's name down to:
Kailia pronounced kai-lee-ah
Taleah pronounced ta-lee-ah, commonly spelt talia
Brooke
Kendall
I wanted something different that not everyones heard of, but OH thinks these names are borderline chavy (i was aiming for pretty but unique lol).

So would you consider these names chavy? And which one you pick?

Lovely!

I live in Venice beach in Los Angeles and think Brooke is a pretty but not uncommon name. I also know a few Kendalls.
Most of the Brookes I know are toddler age and older and the moms who would have chosen that three years ago are now going for names like Vale, Quinn, or even Arrow.
Other names that are on trend here but not as common in Britain are Aubrey, Henley, Soleil.
I also know girls called Campbell, Garland.

Oh just read the update. Congratulations! I know a few kids with Hawaiian names, Koa is a popular one here for boys if you have another - I've been told it's name for trees.

Congrats! And yes, Koa is a lovely name. Bang out another, OP! Grin

Kala Mai is lovely. Congratulations.

Kala is very pretty and unusual but not complicated or gimmicky. I like it. Congratulations!

Allegra. It's not on Mumsnet list, but Allegra was one of Lord Byron's daughters: the other was Ada Lovelace, one of the earliest prime movers in inventing the computer.

I love the name Allegra, but the Byron connection is such an awful, depressing story.

Anyway, the baby's here and already well-named. Congrats on Kala!
