Lara.

Timeless.

Anya kinda sounds made up to me (maybe it's not though?) and Melody is rather twee and doesn't really age that well imo.

Lara, gorgeous name.

Enko · 19/12/2020 11:59

Anya Lara then Melody

BritInAus · 19/12/2020 11:59

Lara is lovely. Melody is awful.

Lara is great. I love Anya spelt Anja as in german spelling.

Melody... not so much...

lottiegarbanzo · 19/12/2020 18:38

Lara is beautiful. Anya's nice.

Melody is meh.

alexdgr8 · 19/12/2020 18:41

Lara
although i prefer Laura.
Anya, no, unless you are continental.
Melody, definitely not. name of a comic. and a very good film.
but not a serious name. it sounds essex girl.

laurielo · 19/12/2020 21:06

Lara

Chilldonaldchill · 19/12/2020 21:40

Anya is lovely. All the ones I've met have been great people.
Lara would be my second choice.
I think Melody sounds really naff.

IamnotwhouthinkIam · 19/12/2020 21:43

Lara and Anya are both gorgeous - it's hard to pick one. I guess I'd choose Lara as it feels the slightly more classic of the two, Anya a bit more exotic. Melody does have a nice sound but feels a bit tacky to me in comparison (unless you are a very musical family and chose it for that reason?)
