These names are all popular and fine names, but none jump out at me as being meaningful. Is there a name that is meaningful for you in a personal way?

Out of your list, I'd put Taylor and Ashley first. Neither are my style, but they are OK. I am very tired of hearing Hailey and it's too trendy for me. Madison is also too trendy.

Makayla I would put at the very bottom of the list. To be blunt, it actually hurts my eyes to look at it because it is such a phonetic, uneducated-looking way of spelling Michaela.

Madison and Taylor seem "old" trendy to me... like the 12 year old girl on my street is named Taylor. And Madison remind me (the old folks) of Splash! I don't know... they both seem like they came and went. I don't mean to offend - I know it's hard when people criticize a name you like :(

My favorite is Makayla, but I much prefer the Michaela spelling. I loved Michaela years ago (back when I was in HS and nowhere near having kids), and I thought Kayla/Kaila would be great nicknames. I also liked the idea of using Mickey as a tomboy nn or as Daddy's special nn. Of course, all the Kayla/Kaylee/Kylee/etc. variations have gotten so popular, and my DH hated it anyway, so we didn't use it. But Michaela is beautiful!

They are all very trendy, and I dislike the spelling of Michaela.

I think both Ashely and Hailey are very sweet and feminine. I love them both.
