Hi, my baby is almost five weeks old and still no name. I have an appointment to register her in the morning.
Could I have opinions on the two names me and dh are stuck between please?
Dalia (this is a kurdish name, baby is half kurdish and I thought it was unusual and so sweet sounding)
Anaya an-eye-ah
Thanks for any help

Dalia is really lovely.

Anaya is pretty!

Dalia is my favourite of the two. I like Talia too.

I think they are both nice but I prefer Dalia. I think the pronunciation is quite intuitive.
Anaya is nice but I know babies called Amara, Amaya, Anya, Anna, Annie... I think it merges with those and is less interesting.

Dalia. My cousin has a Dalia and no one gets the pronounciation wrong.

I knew a Dalia & I doubt anyone pronounced it wrong!! I couldn't imagine it being pronounced any other way from reading it!! It's a lovely nod to her heritage as well

I prefer Dalia too.

I know a Dalia and have never heard anyone pronounce her name incorrectly. It's lovely (as is she).
