Sydney -- fairly popular name. But it still makes me think of Sydney in Australia.

Shay -- Never heard this one before. I've heard Shayna (yiddish for pretty) and Shia (as in LeBouef, an actor).

Kiera -- makes me think of the actress Keira Knightley. With this spelling, it looks like the boys' name Kieran with the last letter left off.

Catalina -- makes me think of Catalina Island in California, or Catalina salad dressing.

Elle -- This is the word for "she" in French. Makes me think of Elle magazine or Elle Macpherson, the model. If your daughter ever goes to or moves to France or French Canada I don't think this name would go over well.

You said to be honest! Of these my favorite is Sydney, which I voted for.

Sydney- I really like Sydney. I would go with this name.
Shay- its okay
Kiera- I like Kiera, but spelt Keira (keer-uh). unless you will pronounce it like Kee-air-uh. I like both names, but you might get some problems with the pronciation with this spelling.
Catalina- I don't like this name... I think of the salad dressing
Elle- Elle is cute, only with a long last name. I think of a little blonde girl. Not as nice when the little girl grows up though.

Sydney is the nicest name, I think, with Kiera in second. Sydney Elizabeth and Sydney Corrine both sound beautiful.
