Name Poll! Lyla Grace or Keira Violet??

[hal1529]

Hello!

We have it narrowed down to two names! (FINALLY)
Lyla Grace S.
Keira Violet S.

Let me know which one you prefer!! Just looking for some outside opinions!
Thanks!

Violet Grace

I love Lila/Lyla too. I find Grace is commonly paired with it. If that doesn't bother you (it is Kate Moss' daughter) then I think its lovely!

I like Kiera Violet also. This gets my vote because I think the pairing is more original!

I prefer Keira Violet. Lilah is nice enough but is in a crowd of similar names - Laila, Lola, Lily etc. Grace is lovely but quite expected as a middle name. Keira is stronger sounding and less used and Violet is gorgeous and unexpected as the middle.

Violet Grace by a long way.

I would choose Violet Grace but out of those, Lyla Grace.

Lyla Grace is a bit more popular. Grace is a very popular middle name. I like Lyla, but I think Grace makes it sound a bit commonplace.

Keira Violet is more unusual, so I'd probably pick that.

I'm not sure.

I don't like the Keira spelling, I much prefer Ciara.

I think I'd mix things up & choose Violet Grace.

Yes Ciara is preferable to Keira imo. Violet and Grace are in a different league to Keira/Ciara though. Again imo.

Keira Violet

I love the name Keira, so pretty. Much nicer than Lila which gets mixed up with all the Layla, Isla, Lily, Aylas.

Violet Grace

Grace Violet.

I don't think the K and the V go together as you have them in Keira
Violet.

I don't know how to say Ciara but I do Keria and it is nice to have less commonly used initials. K and V also have good scrabble values!

I know a lovely Lila and Grace so that was my first go to answer but actually I'm fed up with Grace. I hated having to be graceful and ladylike as a kid, now not so much but saddling a child with a descriptive name that might not match their personality is sometimes unfortunate in shaping an individual. You have only to see how many names are linked to professions to see that there are elements of living up to your name in influencing life choices. I will be looking out for a generation of graceful women that are stamped on by the patriarch.

Keira violet just doesn't work together at all. Plus I personally hate the name Keira, it's sounds so hard.

Ciara will have to deal with constant mispronounciation, nothing wrong with Keira - it's just like Kieran which is a perfectly well known spelling.

I like Keira. I do think there might be a better middle name than violet to go with it though.

Lyla grace

I prefer your middle names to your first names..... so it's another vote for Violet Grace here

I prefer the middle names too.
Not keen on Lyla and Keira at all and they seem a bit faddy, but Violet and Grace are classic and lovely.

Why not call them Grace Lyla and Violet Keira.

Violet is a good first name. Grace is fine, but a bit meh. Lyla is troublesome, due to spellings etc. Likewise Keira. And I wouldn't use Grace as a "filler"middle name. My DC have three middle names each, and they are all names which have significance (rather than being generic 'middle names', if that makes sense).

I dislike Keira, probably because it just makes me think of Keira Knightly.

Worth remembering, possibly, that middle names don't get used other than when journos are talking about slebs' children. So if you want to give them a middle name, just choose something you like, or that has significance to you personally, or that you will never get to use again. Your child will never be known in real life by their middle name as well as their first name. Anyone referring to my DC by their entire names would soon become tired of life and give up. Algernon Onduri Boodle Beau Surname, etc.

I wouldn't go with Grace as a middle name if your surname begins with S. That's two sibilants next to each other which is a bit of a mouthful. Not that you (or your daughter) would probably say the whole name very often, I suppose.

Definitely Lyla. It’s a beautiful name

Keira Violet
