Hi, we're due DD1 soon, we're trying to decide on a name.

DH has vetoed any more unusual namesConfused, we are now trying to decide between 3:

Grace
Alice
Layla

Which would you choose?

All a bit bland. Layla's awful, definitely not that.

Alice is less boring than Grace.

Firebird83 · 09/11/2020 21:52

Alice

NatalieH2220 · 09/11/2020 21:55

Grace is my favourite from your choices

RoseMartha · 09/11/2020 21:58

Grace

Although Alice Grace sounds nice together

I like Grace and Layla, both are beautiful.

MercyBodle · 16/11/2020 13:10

All nice names, but Alice is my favourite, then Grace.

Theyaremyforeverx · 16/11/2020 13:14

Grace sounds nice x

Layla has a very different feel to Alice and Grace, which is almost certainly influencing the answers - I'm also not at all keen on Layla (though I quite like Leila). Alice is nicer than Grace IMO. Both are popular, but I think Grace has become a bit of a generic middle name alongside Rose.

Grace.

Alice is classic and will stand the test of time - if a little dull.
Layla is very trendy and will date quickly.
Grace is the prettiest of the three while still being classic.

Grace or Alice, not Layla.

Layla but I’d go with the Leila spelling, if you wrote both out Leila flows much nicer. It can also be said both ways, lee - lah and lay - la so even as an adult they can choose how their name is pronounced.

Grace is lovey,

Alice is not nice, sorry Confused
