Which name do you think? Eira is pronounced Ayra. Any suggestions for a middle name for either? Thanks!

I didn't know about the welsh name, just thought of Eire, so would pronounce it like that and think you had an Irish connection

So snow or Scotland then?

I really like both but if I had to choose then my favourite would be Eira. I like the meaning snow. Alba makes me think of the girl in The Time Travellers Wife so that's a nice association. I thought it means white which is an ok meaning if that's important.

I love Alba

Should def be pronounced
Ay (like the ay in may) - ra (like ratatouille).
Ideally with a rolling r.
