McKayla

[neon552]

Thoughts on this name for a baby girl?
I like McKayla Rose

I dislike Michaela

Is it not the same name?

How are you pronouncing it?

Actually I guess it isn't. I'd pronounce McKayla with a glottal stop, so Mc-kayla with two "k" sounds.

What about Mikala or Mikayla if necessary? It's the Mc bit that is the problem...

Seriously, don't. I know someone who spells it Mikala, so why not do that if you want to be different?

Hideous.

Not keen on McKayla, or any McSomething names as first names.

I once met a small girl whose first name was McCambridge

I went to school with somebody called Mychaela if that helps? Not keen though i must admit.

Only in America I would expect that kind of spelling. Just awful and a road to spelling hell for her.

Nice name if spelled correctly.

I went to school with a Mackaela during the 90s. Another option!

its not that bad, although im not overly keen on odd spellings of established names, but if you really like it, then its inoffensive

My name is Micheala.

But it’s spelt like that ^^

It’s hard because people have to ask how to pronounce it and I can never find things with my name on it which pissed me off when I was growing up.

Don’t do it

Terrible. If you want to use the name Michaela spell it properly.

How were you pronouncing the name you made up then if you hate Michaela

I dislike Michaela
It’s the same name though?
What if she marries a McDonald and becomes Mckayla Mcdonald? Isn’t that too many ‘muck’ sounds?

Absolutely not

^oops wrong thread. Sorry

Take it your not posh?

Good wind up!

How can you like McKayla but not like Michaela?
It's the same pronunciation, unless you're pronouncing McKayla in some odd way we haven't thought of.

I'm sorry I'm not a fan. Even if it was spelt correctly!

Michaela is a beautiful name, the name of one of the most beautiful women I have ever known.

McKayla is a made up spelling

Awful.

Too chav.

Oh absolutely! I want people’s honest opinions although some people go a step too far I reckon. No need to be condescending!❤️

Michaela makes me read Michael!
Have enjoyed reading some of your replies :) the ‘take it you’re not posh’ was a personal highlight!
Thanks all.
