What does everyone think of this name (girl)?

It’s nice I think.
I like Azelia also as an alternative

ineedamoreadultieradult · 20/09/2017 21:23

I like it.

PanannyPanoo · 20/09/2017 21:25

Lovely. I work in schools and have never met one. A well known word but not common as a name. Wish I had thought of it!

ScaryMonstersAndSuoerCreeps · 20/09/2017 21:28

I thought of Iggy Azalea.....

....wouldn't be my choice.....

I actually really like it! Just met a baby Azalea the other day and she was darling.

stellarfox · 20/09/2017 21:56

Love it!

Alisvolatpropiis · 20/09/2017 22:18

Slightly different spelling to Azealia Banks but it does just make me think of her and that song. I like the song but it wouldn't be one I'd like people to associate with my lovely baby daughter's name.

SuperBeagle · 20/09/2017 22:18

Also think of Iggy Azalea.

TaggieRR · 20/09/2017 22:19

I don't like it. Sorry.

caprifun · 20/09/2017 22:20

I think it's lovely

StewartHil · 20/09/2017 22:48

212, op

Iggy Azalea...or that racist Azealia Banks.

Neither are great namesakes but at the same time, neither will remain famous. It's not like naming a child Beyonce. I like Azalea.

StewartHil · 20/09/2017 23:10

Thanks alis

It's really nice.

StewartHil · 21/09/2017 00:20

thanks everyone, any suggestions on what could you shorten it to other than lea?

I quite like it. Not heard it as a name before. Zaya as a nn??

PanannyPanoo · 21/09/2017 07:28

I would use Zaylee as a Nick name

17caterpillars1mouse · 21/09/2017 08:40

My first thought was also Iggy

Fekko · 21/09/2017 08:43

Makes me think of Red Azalea but I don't suppose many people would think that (autobiography of a film actress during the Chinese cultural revolution).

I love the flowers but not sure it's pretty for a person.

Sugarpiehoneyeye · 21/09/2017 10:46

Azara is nice

ibentmywookie · 21/09/2017 12:16

I know a small Azalea, I believe she gets called Zaza by her siblings.

Mrsknackered · 21/09/2017 13:28

I wouldn't because of Azealia Banks. She's vile.
