I love both first names. It's hard for me to choose, but I think I'm swaying more towards Sienna. x

Madmarchpear · 18/11/2018 20:08

Sienna. But not with May.

Ariel88 · 18/11/2018 20:09

Thanks any other suggestion of middle name with it?

Both lovely but I like Isla best

bridgetreilly · 18/11/2018 20:40

Sienna Mary or Isla Mary.

LoveB · 18/11/2018 20:40

Sienna

Badliar · 18/11/2018 20:41

Isla

LeticiaDejeuner · 18/11/2018 20:44

I like Isla May... although I did think Isle of May straight away - as would many Scottish people, not that it's necessarily a bad thing... (beautiful island very close to Edinburgh: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isle_of_May)

Shadow1234 · 18/11/2018 22:16

Sienna is a really lovely name, but I'm not keen on May tbh.

Sienna Rose
Sienna Rai
Sienna Leigh
Sienna Joy
Sienna Faye

Calzone · 18/11/2018 22:19

Isla May does sound like an island.

Isla Elizabeth
Isla Gabriella
Isla Victoria

OneTwistedAngel · 19/11/2018 00:25

Isla Marie is nice

ILoveAutum · 19/11/2018 00:30

It sounds like an island, because it IS an island.

You can’t call her Isla May.

Nor Sienna May.

highinthesky · 19/11/2018 00:34

How about Isla Sinclair?

Pemba · 19/11/2018 00:35

Not Isla - so overused at the moment and slightly dull. Quite like Sienna.

May is a bit boring too. I know Rose is also overused at the moment, but Sienna Rose sounds lovely. Sienna Mary is nice, and Sienna Clare, Sienna Lucy.

HelloPeopl3 · 19/11/2018 00:47

My daughter will be called Isla-Mai.
I love the name OP x

Thetigerwhocameto · 19/11/2018 01:17

I feel like May is becoming/is the old Leigh that was added to the end of every name. @hellopeopl3 I’m a teacher and lots of these kids drop the hyphenated part of their name and comment they wish it was just a middle name? Just a thought.

As for the initial question, Sienna, there are lots of Isla’s around at the mo (not a reason not to use it but I know it puts some people off)

SpaghettiTuesdays · 19/11/2018 02:25

Sienna. Never actually met one but it's a really nice name. Met millions of Islas. It's a nice enough name but Sienna is lovely.

Polkasq · 19/11/2018 07:25

Sienna

canihaveanap · 19/11/2018 07:26

I would choose sienna, Isla is so common at the moment.

Icklepup · 19/11/2018 08:27

Sienna

Sunshiness · 19/11/2018 08:38

Both lovely, but prefer Isla Smile

Not a fan of May as mn. I think PP suggestions of

Isla Marie
Isla Elizabeth

are really lovely.

Undercoverbanana · 19/11/2018 08:46

Isla May is a place - Isle of May.

Isla Rose
Isla Katherine
Isla Estelle
Isla Olivia
Isla Margaret

twentytimes · 19/11/2018 10:08

Isla.
Is May part of the first name or middle name?
Isla Sienna is quite nice actually if you really like both names

Sungura · 19/11/2018 10:28

I like Sienna, too. Sienna Laurel?
