Hi, i am extremely early pregnant only six weeks but I am already thinking of names! What do people think of Isla? Middle name Grace. Or if anyone else has any other middle name suggestions? xx

DS (12) is friends with an Isla Grace an Isla Rose, and an Aiyla Rose.
Juliet is beautiful.

Aiyla, is that pronounced the same? Not seen it spelt like that before?
Another one for Juliet ❤️❤️
I will add it to my short list as a girl first name then, will need to think of a middle name xx my son has a Juliet in his class and I've always thought it was pretty but had forgotten about it until it was suggested on this thread x

As long as your surname isn't Mann or White.

The two Juliets I know are adults and both get called Jet

Yes, it's pronounced the same.

Isla is lovely. My 11 yr old niece is called Isla and its a beautiful name. Yes it's more common now but who cares. Its still quite classic. Her only problem is some people pronouncing it iz-laaa but not a major issue. Go for it. If you love a name then use it and don't tell people because they will have too much of an opinion and put you off or upset you.

Forgot to say my niece is Isla Elizabeth ( after my mother)

Isla is way too popular and overused while Iona is less common and more beautiful.
I know of one 40+ Iona and Iona Grace is a classic combination.
