Well I'm partial to Kate. :) I think it sounds the best with Audrey too. I think the 1 syllable middle name sounds better with the 2 syllable first name.

I voted for Audrey Laurel Canada because I don't like the K/C sounds with the mn and ln, and if they are all family names, I like Laurel better. Plus, I love the name Laurel on its own! If one of the names was honoring someone extremely important to you, I would not care about the flow (for example, if Kaye was your dear grandmother who just died). But, like I said, if all the names are equally special to you as family names, I would prefer Laurel.

Good luck!

I voted for Laurel mostly because I love it, but also because I don't like a one syllable K name followed immediately by Canada. The k-k sound is too clinky-clanky for me. Something longer--like Katherine or Kathleen, for example--would sound less like a rattle to my ears. I'd still vote for Laurel, though...so pretty and far more unique.

My vote easily went to Audrey Laurel. I love Laurel anyway, and definitely prefer it to the abrupt K-Canada sounds of either of the other choices.

FWIW, I initially read Kaye as Kate anyway ... I actually looked back and forth between the two a few times before I realized they were different. LOL

Of the K mns, I do prefer Kate. Audrey Kate is a nice combo when the ln is not present, and technically she's still "Audrey K.," so using Kaye as the full mn doesn't make much sense to me. Also, the fact that Kaye is open-ended makes it sound more like a stutter with Canada than Kate does. Almost like someone began to mispronounce Canada with a long "a" and then corrected themselves (Audrey Kay-Kan-a-da). Hopefully you KWIM. ;)

I like Audrey Kate the best but my vote did go to Audrey Laurel because it flows way better with your last name, and I agree with the PP who said Kaye sounded like a stutter when trying to Cananda. So I would definitley not use that one.

I voted for Audrey Laurel because of the k-k sound already mentioned, plus Kate is sort of a filler mn while Laurel isn't as common.
