Clara, Kaia, Anja

[MidnightScrolls]

Hi everyone, stuck between Clara, Kaia and Anja for little girl and would love to some other perspectives, I feel like I have been looking over these for so long it's impossible to be objective now!! I also really loved Flora but dh wasn't keen because of unfortunate butter associations.

Older brother is Ronan and we have French, Danish and Irish family!

I like Anya !!

Anja
Clara
Kaia

in that order.

I think keep the spelling as a nod to your Danish roots. She will mostly be introducing herself in person and it’s easily corrected if people pronounce it wrong. Failing that, what about Ania? Slightly different spelling but shouldn’t have pronunciation issues.

I prefer Klara, particularly if you have Scandinavian roots.

How do you pronounce Kaia and Anja? In my head it’s Kay-ah and An-ja? I’ve not heard of them before.

Kigh-a and Ann-ya

Love Clara.

@londongirl12 , Kaia Gerber is a famous model. Anya/Anja is a form of Anne/Anna

Anya is lovely. Very international, well known yet underused in the UK. But I’d only use the Anja spelling if you are living in a country where it’s the norm- otherwise it will be an extra annoyance for her.

I have always had a soft spot for the name Ronan for a little boy!

Out of your choices for a girl, I'd choose Clara or Anja.

Anja/Anya 😍

Clara 👌🏻

Kaia 👎

I love Clara. It was high on my list if we'd had girls. Anja is very pretty too. How about Katja/ Katia/Katya? It's prettier than Kaia imo.

My DD is Anja (Scandinavian roots too). No one has ever pronounced her name correctly in the UK. 🫣 It does baffle me a little as I have never heard of anyone called Ange-a… They just read it phonetically in English.

Clara is my favourite

Clara is my favourite, they're all lovely though.
