Hi everyone,
I'm due in 6 weeks and still not 100% on a boy's name. Me and my husband both like Niall but are undecided on how to spell it.

So....help me decide....would you go for Nyle or Niall?!

In Scotland they pronounce Niall the same as Neil. In Ireland it's pronounced Nyul/Nyle a la Niall Horan or Niall Quinn.

Ah, I'd wondered why sometimes it was said Neil.

Feel bad now I worked with a Nail who said his name was Neil and everyone called him Nial Neil Nial. Nice guy too - got married to Susan not Sue.

The British Olympic gymnast was Nile Wilson, but I prefer Niall.

Niall is my brothers name. It's a gorgeous name. I didn't know that in Scotland they pronounced it Neil. We are in Ireland
