Hi all my name is Whitney and this is my first post here...I would like some help or suggestions with figuring out a unique middle name for a girl. Kierslynn is the first name and Macken is the last. Thanx :)

Kierslynn??? How exactly is that pronounced? I think maybe you should re-think that one... The thing with unique names is that often times they just seem weird and are easily mis-pronounced. Here are some ideas of names that aren't popular, but yet aren't made up. You could consider them as options for first names rather than Kierslynn, or as mn's if you do stick with it.

Iris

Kimber

Tallulah

Thea

Aurora nn Rory

Gemma

Chandler

Phoenix

Tatum

Sage

Talia

Brenna

Hadley

Alba

Elora

Arlen

Fallon

Calla

Ivy

Laine

Maren

Carys

Tierney

Della

Kinsey

Ashlyn

Bronwen

Try to keep in mind that this child will live with her name for her ENTIRE life... when she is an adult do you think Kierslynn will still be so cute? There are similar names- Kiersten, Kristen, Kirsten, etc. If you must stick with it, I would change the spelling to make things easier on her.
With Kierslynn, the pronunciation is confusing - "kee-airs-lynn" or "keers-lyn". I like "keers-lynn" better, and with that pronunciation, would spell it Keerslyn. It is much clearer.

ITS STAYING KIERSLYNN AND FOR A REASON....Lynn is my husbands dead mothers name for 1...and his sisters name is kiersten. it is pronounced Keers-lynn but that spelling is ugly and nobody else has had any trouble with the way i've chosen to spell it. Also, thanx but no thanx for trying to get me to change the name i have chosen for my child. YES i asked for help but NOT with the name I have chosen and LOVE...i asked for help choosing a middle name. It's funny, i posted the same thing on what to expect and everyone loved the name almost as much as i do and found it just as rude as i did that someone would have the nerve to tell me to "rethink" it. I mean what if i asked you if you have kids and their names and told you that you should have Rethunk their names before naming them that? Yeah, not very nice huh?

I find it completely different once the child is already named. Had you posted that you *already* had a child and named her this, of course I wouldn't say anything negative about it. Most posters on here are appreciative of hearing all opinions...

I don't know that it's particularly unique, but I think Kierslynn Jane sounds wonderful. I think a short, sweet name would be a nice balance to a longer first name!
