You're going to report a fact?

I’m so confused what is there to report?

Apparently you're not allowed to state facts on this site anymore.

But what was the fact?

Orla is my fave and imo flows the nicest! Great names btw I love Rex and indie!

MadameDragon · 08/05/2022 20:01

The fact was conjecture about the meaning of the word Orla, that as far as I remember had nothing to do with the etymology of the Irish name.

LittlemissMama67 · 08/05/2022 20:34

Oh okay gotcha

Orla and Ella are really nice names
I think maybe Ella goes better with Rex and Indie but they are both nice

DramaAlpaca · 08/05/2022 21:54

Orla for definite. I do like Orla Daisy Jean.

Rex, Indie and Orla go well.

Rex, Indie and Ella I prefer.

bloominglovelyorange · 10/05/2022 17:35

Orla is lovely

Saltnpepperr · 10/05/2022 21:07

Orla. second fave is Jean, I know that’s only a middle name contender but I love it.

Luredbyapomegranate · 11/05/2022 08:41

Orla Daisy Jean is really nice

LittlemissMama67 · 11/05/2022 10:49

Jean is my granny’s name and her mums name was Jeanie so I’m super excited to use it for our baby girl, I think it’s so beautiful

What about Erin?

thewhatsit · 12/05/2022 06:47

Oh Orla definitely.

Ella is very common - which clearly you mind.
Tilly is a nickname and on its own is too cutesy.

I don’t understand the PP who says they don’t go with your other kids’ names. Orla fits in well. You clearly go for:


  1. short names. 1 or 2 syllables.

  2. easy to pronounce, no frills

  3. known names that won’t be misunderstood that are not too common

Orla is gorgeous and means golden princess its my daughters middle name ... congratulations x

CP2701 · 15/05/2022 01:17

Rhea
Piper
Brodie
Seren
Paige
Jorgie (Jorgie Jean sounds awesome to me)
Paisley
Stevie
Quinn

Some ideas. Names are so personal, it's hard to suggest for people!

Indie is a super cool name though 😎
