I hate all three (sorry).
Verity is hideous. So wet fish. And I’ve known some hideous Veritys.

Waverley is very strange. It’s made-up for a name.

A lot of people will think Kayla is chavvy. I personally don’t like it because it’s very harsh sounding and I don’t like the ‘Kay’ sound.

There are much nicer names out there. But if you love one of these, go for it.

Kayla is nice.
Waverley, no sorry.
Verity, very harsh sounding to me.

Jasquers · 09/06/2018 12:40

Dislike all of them

Verity was my top name until the week before my daughter was born when someone pointed out it sounded like 'Ferretty'. 😣 Kayla is a pretty name.

RachelHerts1 · 09/06/2018 14:19

Verity is nice but quite old fashioned. Not that it's a bad thing though.

SamanthaH92 · 09/06/2018 14:59

Waverley is actually an american name also

gwen25 · 09/06/2018 15:26

Definitely Verity.

DuggeeHugs · 09/06/2018 16:30

Verity is great, I'dgo with that. I just checked with the lovely Verity I know and she's never been called ferrity, even as a nickname by unkind kids at school (she's in her 30s now)

FASH84 · 09/06/2018 18:30

Verity is lovely. Kayla is a bit Jeremy Kyle.. Waverley isn't a name.

Echobelly · 09/06/2018 18:40

I like Verity, it deserves a comeback!

Waverley is one of those 'sounds like a surname' girls' names that I'm personally not keen on.

Kayla should be quite nice but it gives me mental associations with chavviness.

kaytee87 · 09/06/2018 19:11

Verity at a push
The others are awful

Glumglowworm · 09/06/2018 19:17

Verity is nice, Kayla isn’t my taste but is ok

Definitely not Waverley, it’s awful!

GreatDuckCookery6211 · 09/06/2018 21:47

Waverley is ridiculous sorry. Kayla isn't much better.

Verity is lovely.

MikeUniformMike · 10/06/2018 16:27

Verity - Ferrety
Waverley - No
Kayla - not keen but it's ok

Flaminglingos · 11/06/2018 04:23

Verity

starkid · 11/06/2018 16:40

Out of those, Verity, but not hugely keen on any of them (sorry!)
