ooooh! Put Kitty first, it's lovely. Not that keen on Mae - nice name but don't like the spelling (for some reason ). May is fine.

Amelia Kitty

Amelia Kitty for absolute sure.

Sorry but I loathe Mae, though I think spelling it May makes all the difference. Lydia is quite nice. Lilah, or even Lila, reminds of of Lilo-Lil off Bread.

LadyThompson · 11/06/2008 12:12

Why wouldn't May go with your surname, yet Mae would?? Even if your surname begins with Y, it's still pronounced the same!

If her name is a verb - e.g Smart (she did say it was one syllable starting with S and something like Smith) then May Smart sounds like something the doctor would say before doing something excrutiatingly painful.

Lydia I like best. Amelia is also a nice name.

Absolutely don't like Lilah or Lila and I don't like the middle names at all either, sorry!

LadyThompson · 11/06/2008 12:19

I take your point LLB but it would still sound precisely the same said aloud...

LuLuBai · 11/06/2008 12:24

Options for a child of either gender: May Smart or Will Smart

(I just hope neither of them ever grow up to be my GP)

I really like Amelia Kitty.

ninedragons · 11/06/2008 13:32

Amelia Kitty is the best of your options. It sounds like the heroine of one of those novels for 10-year-old girls about a boarding school where you can take your pony with you.

I love Amelia and Kitty . Bloddy DH will not consider Kitty .

bluenosesaint · 12/06/2008 22:50

I like May and Kitty, but i'm not keen on Lydia, Lilah or Amelia. If i had to pick one it would be Amelia

bluenosesaint · 12/06/2008 22:52

If i had to pick one of your first choice names that is

LadyThompson · 13/06/2008 15:12

I know an Amelia who gets called Mia - it's really sweet.
