Avery or Layla

[cowsarecool]

I need some baby name help!!! We are team yellow and are totally not agreeing on names! So I need some opinions on the following:

Girls:
Layla Rae
Avery Grace

Boys:
Jackson James
Isaac Michael
Archie Michael

I love Avery for a girl husband hates it.

Avery is a company which makes printer labels. It's not a name.

Layla is a great name, not keen on Rae as a middle name as it's this decade's answer to May of the 2000s and Lee/Leigh of the 1990s.

Like Isaac and Archie.

Piper pretty much said what I was going to say.

What is team yellow?

Not keen on the girls names. Avery Grace sounds a bit like Amazing Grace.

What about Lyla?

I don’t really like Avery, makes me think of a bird house! Love Grace - would you consider it for a first name? Like Archie and Issac from your boy list but know so many Jacksons and I always think of it as a surname.

I do prefer Layla although I definitely hear the song If you’re after a few curve balls how about:

Lara
Luna
Taylor
Louella
Lyra
Amerie
Reagan

I think Layla will date - there are so many Isla/Lyla/ Lila/Layla names around. And agree with PP re Rae. What about Grace for a first name?

Isaac my fav boys name from your lists

Avery is a popular girls name.
I prefer Layla personally. Also if your husband hates a name I'd pass

Avery is a company that makes weighing scales and labels...
Layla makes me think of Eric Clapton....

Combine the two : Ava?

Layla is nice. Grace would be a better middle name with it than Rae.

Avery just makes me think of aviaries & stationery. I really dislike it. Anyway, if your DH hates it it's off the table, surely.

I don't like Isaac or Archie at all so Jackson would be my pick for a boy.

Is Avery not a boys name as in Nashville?

Greys Anatomy fan I’m guessing ?

I like Jackson & Avery but reminds me of G.A .

To me, Avery is a boy's name. Grace is my favourite of your girls' names.

Boys - I'd go for Jackson James and call him JJ for short.

Avery is a boys name (and a death eater) so I'd definitely go for Layla

I Ike Archie best of the boys names, with Isaac a close runner up

Layla out of the two, but prefer Lara.

Archie is fine.

Not keen on your girl names but Layla is slightly better.
I like Jackson

I like Avery or Jackson

Avery makes me think of a bird cage (there was a boy with the surname Avery at school, and that was his nickname).

So, Layla.

Boys names: favourite is Archie followed by Isaac. Really dislike Jackson as a first name. Jack is OK, but "son of Jack" is an odd name to give a child (especially if his father isn't actually named Jack).

Avery reminds me of birds too. What about Everly Grace? Isaac for a boy.

Layla is lovely. It's a very old classic name.
I quite like Jackson. Archie is too cutesy for me, though I do like it if's short for something longer. I'm not wild about Isaac.

Im with you on Avery - I really love this name. (but you both have to like a name).

Layla is a pretty name and goes well with Rae
Archie is my favourite on your boys list
Jackson will more than likely end up just being called Jack (which is very overused name now)

I prefer Layla Grace

Your husband is right about Avery. Layla will date.

Lara and Lyra are more classic.

Like Isaac.

Layla is lovely but Avery is a boys name.
Archie is very popular but nice. Jackson is just ick but then I don't like surnames for first name. Isaac is fine- a bit religious but nice enough.

Layla is okay, not too keen. Avery is okay too although I think I'd prefer it on a boy.

Not keen on any of the boys names either! (Unless you moved Avery over!) 😂 sorry!

Avery is a boys name and a diminutive of Alfred.

Layla Grace. I'm not keen on any of your names but Isaac Michael is OK - I prefer Michael Isaac.
How about Rachel Grace known as Rae?
