Hello there,

I can not decide on which name to chose out of Skye and Skylar. I also like Willow and Alana too!

like earthy names for some reason 😅

what do people prefer?

all thoughts considered and helpful 😀

many thanks!

The fact that both your first choices are popular means they are acceptable to most people. I like Willow but wouldn’t use it because in my family no one I’ve ever known has been at all willowy!
Youve got a good short list OP so why not wait and see which name you feel suits your DD?

Skylar is gorgeous

Skye or Willow

As a pet sitter go for Skye, the others are super common cat and dog names! Skye is too but more of a human name at the same time.

Enjoy your baby 💐

I prefer Willow or Alana but if you want Skye/Skylar I would use Skylar as she can shorten it to Sky/Skye so it gives more options

Much prefer Skye.
It has elegant simplicity.

I know a boy called Skylar so I've always assumed it was a boy's name!
So I prefer Skye

Alana is Ok

Robin, Rowan, Jasmine, Laurel, Astra, Aster, Stella are also quite nice
