Currently 32 weeks with DC2, a little girl.
Her older brother is Grayson.
Here are some names we are considering:

  • Harper
  • Anya
  • Natasha
  • Hazel
  • Maya (My-uh)

The name at the top of my list though is Acacia (uh-cay-sha) I just love it! Mum says it doesn't match with Grayson but that isn't really a big deal to me. The main problem is DH is not a fan - it's too frilly apparently and people will pronounce it uh-cak-ee-uh etc.

Opinions / suggestions?

Acacia Rd- where bananaman lived.

And "Acacia Avenue" is standing joke, isn't it? That would put me off.

Hazel is lovely!

How about Anastasia, as an Acacia/Natasha inspired mashup..?

Natasha is a bit dated to me. I think Harper goes nice with Grayson OP.

Maya 💯%

All the names on your list go perfectly well next to Grayson.
I love Anya - my easy first choice, and 2nd choice Natasha.
Hazel is okay but I'm just not keen on it. Harper is over-used and the first to cross off. Maya is okay but has 2 different pronunciations, and along with all the Mia, Mya and Myahs around it's just too popular and confusing.

Anya is lovely
I also like Natasha but a shame if shortened
