Hi

My partner and I are due to have our second daughter in 8 weeks and have a short list of names. Our first we found cane together really easy but the second seems so much harder.
I know traditionally you keep these to yourself but After reading this site, I would really be grateful for some thoughts. Surname is one syllable

Our list is short

Elise ?
Ayla Grace
Elle or Ellie Grace

Thoughts welcomed and thanks for your time

Ayla Grace is nice Smile

Elle Grace sounds like Earl Grey.
Ellie Grace is lovely.
Don’t like Ayla

Mia and Elise go really well together, I think. And since you have a good traditional middle name for Mia, what about:

Elise Miranda
Elise Caroline
Elise Florence
Elise Josephine
Elise Miriam

I like Ellie Grace best from you list. I find Elise and Ayla fairly bland. I like these similar names more:
Alice
Ailsa
Anthea
Eleanor
Elsie
Willa
Lucy
Edie
Lily
Lyla

I thought ‘Thoughts’ was the proposed 3rd name when I read the title..

Guineapigbridge · 12/04/2020 23:55

Zoe?

Elise is short for Elizabeth so I wouldn't use that.
Elle is too close in sound to Elizabeth.

Ayla is nice and Mia and Ayla is a nice combination for sisters.

I would choose a long, traditional middle name like Elizabeth for a MN with Ayla.

Ayla Victoria
Ayla Madeleine
Ayla Katherine
Ayla Vivien

Mila Ellen
Ina Olivia
Nina Evelyn
Anabella rose
Eleanor kate

Anthilda · 13/04/2020 07:19

Whoops, just seen you have a shortlist. From those I think Ellie Grace is nicest Smile

I like Elise and Ellie most from your list. Although Ellie has been very popular it looks to be on the decline.

I would choose Elise Grace

pumpkinpie01 · 13/04/2020 10:44

Ellie is quite common where we live , but Elise isn't , we have an Elise in the family it's nicely unusual but not 'out there' . . Elise Jade, Elise Josephine, Elise Bethany all have a nice sound to them.

Mum2B36 · 13/04/2020 21:50

Ella?

1Dancing · 09/06/2020 11:15

Thanks everyone!

So it’s down to

Elise Georgia

Or

Ayla Grace

Naming your child really is a big responsibility - appreciate all your feedback and time

Ayla Grace for sure. Elise is quite cutesy compared to Mia which is much more mature. Elise will also get misread as Elsie a lot. And there are so many El- names these days (Ellie, Ella, Eleanor, Elodie etc) that it won't stand out much.

Mia and Ayla sounds lovely.

OnABeachSomewhere · 09/06/2020 15:42

Elise Georgia is beautiful - go for that one!

123Dancewithme · 10/06/2020 14:48

Elise Georgia. Ayla seems very insubstantial.

Kittymitty38 · 12/06/2020 18:56

Elise is beautiful, but I would spell it Elsie x

Poppyfields21 · 12/06/2020 23:13

I love Elise

Poppyfields21 · 12/06/2020 23:13

Kitty Elise and Elsie are two totally different names
