At the moment one of these is my choice, one is dh's choice and one is dd's choice! Just wondering who thought what to each! I'm sure all three will change again before baby comes

Thanks...

Leah seems to be a love it or hate it name! Good job we love it I guess!

Kira - Didn't like 'Keira' when it was written down but it's growing on me and think it would be easier to spell it the way people know rather than the 'easier' way.

Jemma - is the way that dd spells it (she is 5 so spells phonetically) and actually like it better than we a 'G'. Not sure why, but think it looks softer. Do like Jemima but a friend has a dd called that so didn't want to copy!

Leah OR Jemimah better than Gemma.

Jemima is 100 times better than Jemma.

I like Jemma best but would spell it Gemma.
Leah is nice too.

I'm an adult called Jemma! (jemmalou - are you also a Jemma Louise?! )

I've never know it to be a nn for Jemima though - all the Jemima's I know are Jem, if they have a nn at all (apart from one who is a Mimi)

I like my spelling better than the G version becuase of the phonetic thing - to me Gemma and Jemma look like completely different names!
