Just that which one for my baby girl?

OP posts:
Are your children’s vaccines up to date?

Alexandra

maras2 · 14/01/2025 05:59

Anything but KiLeigh, please. 😱

Justsayit123 · 14/01/2025 06:00

Niether, definitely not KiLeigh which is just horrendous

Oreyt · 14/01/2025 06:00

Kylie?

JerrySprinter · 14/01/2025 06:02

I read it as Kill Leigh!

Doloresparton · 14/01/2025 06:03

Alexandra is beautiful and can be shortened if wanted.

Me too. Is this your intention OP?

In any case Alexandra.
The other name is setting her up for a lifetime of correcting people and if she is ambitious, she’ll change it later on to something more professional. Sorry.

Alexandra is lovely. KiLeigh is terrible.

EmpressaurusKitty · 14/01/2025 06:13

If your username’s true, @inUSA, did you know this site’s mainly British? I don’t know if KiLeigh’s popular in the US but it doesn’t work over here, hence the reactions.

I am a nice person (honest) but
One is elegant .. one is trashy

alexandra is a beautiful name

Firsttimebabymummy · 14/01/2025 06:28

Alexandra

My LO is Alexandra so I'm biased

Tubetrain · 14/01/2025 06:30

Would you like to be called KiLeigh?

WashYourDamnRice · 14/01/2025 06:35

Is KiLeigh Kylie? If so, just use the normal spelling. I can't emphasize enough how so incredibly stupid it looks spelt like that.

Alexandra is timeless.

Hercisback1 · 14/01/2025 06:36

Alexandra

WelcomeToMonkeyTown · 14/01/2025 06:36

I'm just shocked that someone would choose both those names and they're complete opposites.

One is timeless, classic and and elegant.

The other looks like someone taking an already not-great name and trashing it even further.

LostMyLanyard · 14/01/2025 07:15

Haha this has got to be a joke!! KiLeigh?? 🤣

reichs79 · 14/01/2025 07:37

KiLeigh? Def not
Going for Alexandra!

Allthegoodusernamesareused · 14/01/2025 07:37

Alexandra is a beautiful name.

How is KiLeigh pronounced? Kylie?

EmpressaurusKitty · 14/01/2025 08:02

I’d thought Keeley originally. Although it’s given me a Marillion ear worm.

Fontainebleau007 · 14/01/2025 08:06

Please not KiLeigh.

Chuchoter · 14/01/2025 08:06

Alexandra.

KiLeigh might be ok for a Wombat but not as a child's name in the U.K.

😂

24CRZZNKKA · 14/01/2025 08:09

I'm saying it as Kai-Lee.

Awful spelling.

And a bizarre two options. One totally normal and one made up

TeabySea · 14/01/2025 08:11

I assumed a typo for Kaileigh.

Spirallingdownwards · 14/01/2025 08:13

I am assuming this is someone taking the piss so I would call her BalOnz
