Of the boys I like Noah.

Yeah, I do too but maybe it's a bit common?

I like Eden, Beau and Noah.
Im not keen on hyphenated names. Without the second names, I like Harper and Lily, and Amelia is ok.

I also like Beau for a girl?

If Noah is too common then hyphernating is too!

Amelia is nice.

KarateKitten · 11/09/2017 15:36

I'd say Lily without the hyphenation and Noah.

MrsTerryPratchett · 11/09/2017 15:36

Beau is the male version of beautiful. Belle would be female.

MrsTerryPratchett · 11/09/2017 15:36

And Beaux is plural!

AccrualIntentions · 11/09/2017 15:37

I'd see Eden as more of a girls name. I'm not keen on hyphenated names or nicknames as full names (but Frankie for Frances or Francesca would be nice) so on that basis the only one I'd use is Noah.

But I want something unusual like Myla or Rylee.

Or are they a bit out there

OP posts:
ineedamoreadultieradult · 11/09/2017 15:42

Rylee isn't out there it is just an alternative spelling of Ryley and there are loads of Ryley's.

MrsTerryPratchett · 11/09/2017 15:44

They're just misspelled common names, aren't they? Riley is a Gaelic name which is quite common. So do you want a modern name that is fairly unusual or just a common name spelled differently.

FWIW DD calls our car Ryla which I think is a great name!

Ok..thoughts on Myla?

OP posts:
MrsTerryPratchett · 11/09/2017 15:46

I think My May Mae Mi names are really common at the moment.

Nomoresunshine · 11/09/2017 15:47

Eden for a girl.
Noah /Moses for a boy.

I like Amelia-Jade then Francesca/Elizabeth as a middle name with it? Thoughts?!

OP posts:
MrsTerryPratchett · 11/09/2017 15:50

What about Amelia with Jade as a middle name? Then you can call her Amelia Jade, she only has to spell Amelia and isn't lumbered with a double name? I mean it's FIVE syllables! For a small child that's a bit rough.

Yourshakraishangingout · 11/09/2017 15:53

I actually know children with all of these names (not hyphenated and spelt traditionally) except Beau, so I wouldn't say any of them are particularly 'out there'

Jellybeans90 · 11/09/2017 15:56

Is Amelia-Jade Elizabeth or Francesca a bit much?

OP posts:
MrsTerryPratchett · 11/09/2017 15:59

Yes. Just think of every form the poor girl will fill out in her life.

Yourshakraishangingout · 11/09/2017 16:06

I do think it's a bit long, sorry. Could she just be Amelia Elizabeth/Francesca?

Mrsknackered · 11/09/2017 16:07

Frankie for girl (love it)

Eden or Noah for boys, probably Eden as it's less popular. I love it

grufallosfriend · 11/09/2017 16:08

I really like Aria!

Noah is way overused imo.

Awwlookatmybabyspider · 11/09/2017 16:08

Beau for a boy. Also quite like it for a girl. Not keen on the other boys names.
Amelia Grace
Lily-Jade
Lily-Beau
Frankie-Beau
Amelia-Beau
Harper-Grace
I'm tempted to say Lily Grace but They're everywhere
