Hi
I'm having a baby girl and wondered opinions on the name Felicity and the name Nala. I have a son already named Austin and for anyone that has seen Austin Powers lol, his girlfriends name in the second film is felicity. I just wondered if people would associate the two together if I told them my children where called Austin and felicity?

I also love the name Nala like from the lion king.

It would either be:
Felicity Iris
Felicity Zara
Nala Iris
Nala Zara

I wouldn't make the association. I prefer Felicity to Nala.

Felicity Iris is lovely

Love Felicity Iris, and no way would I ever make that connection nor does it matter! Beautiful name!

I saw Nala and instantly thought Lion King.

Felicity is lovely.

I love Nala/ Nahla...its on my shortlist. The only thing holding me back is the thought of her being called gnarly! The lion king thing doesn't bother me in the slightest.

Don't like the nn Flick for Felicity...that would put me off! I've got a real pet hate for nicknames!

I wouldn't notice either.

I love Felicity Iris.

Nala is ok, but again I do think Lion King. I'd probably avoid Nala Zara though (it's very hard to say without going a bit sing-songy!).
