Fun again. Here goes-

Aaliyah/Aliyah - This name is really growing in popularity.

Ainsley - So is this one, but more esp. Ansley.

Callie/Kali - Too nicknamey for my taste, prefer Calista.

Alara - Appealing.

*Halle/Hallie* - ADORE! Traditional spelling- Halle.

Amaya - Beautiful, eliminating in favor of others.

*Keely* - Adore, my we have similar taste!

*Amity* - Love this one too, and the meaning- dear friend, loving friend, friend to all

Kianna - There are too many -Anna names.

*Aylah* - OH, MY! I have been begging parents to use this since I was 15! My dh wouldn't let me. I LOVE IT! I prefer the traditional spelling Ayla.

Kylah - Very pretty...but, after much wrestling, I'm eliminating b/c I like others better.

*Bianca* - LOVE IT!

Lara - Lovely name, too plain to compete on this list.

Layla/Laila - Beautiful but eliminating in favor of Ayla.

*Phoebe* - Love, love, love.

Rhianna - Prefer Rhiannon.

Tamara - Great name, eliminating in favor of others.

Talisa - LOVE it...but...(sigh)...eliminating.

Taryn - Has appeal...that's why it's getting popular.

Tamika - Not as great as others.

Zali -Ditto.

Middle Names

Paige - Good but done a lot.

Elise - Ditto, but very pretty.

*Nicole* - Done a lot, but very appealing.

Jade - Not a personal fave.

*Kirsten*- LOVE, now we're cooking!

FN- Halle, Keely, Amity, Ayla, Bianca, Phoebe

Aaliyah/Aliyah - like the name, not the spelling - forget the double-A (yes, I know that's how the singer spells it) and forget the h at the end on this one - Aleya or Aliya serve the purpose just fine. (jmo)

Ainsley - do not like

Callie/Kali - OK

Alara - nah

Halle/Hallie - yes, Halle

Amaya - OK

Keely - nah

Amity - sort of OK, I wouldn't use it

Kianna - like this a lot

Aylah - not at all

Kylah - OK

Bianca - really dislike

Lara - don't like

Layla/Laila - really don't like

Phoebe - cute, one of the very few cute older names that I like

Rhianna - LOVE THIS ONE

Tamara - nice

Talisa - OK, pretty

Taryn - not crazy for because I know two boys named Taren believe it or not

Tamika - OK, pretty

Zali - eeek, no

Middle Names - depends on which first though

Paige - great middle

Elise - great middle

Cate/Kate - usually not

anna - too plain, boring

Sara - not a good middle

Nicole - great middle for a lot of things

Jade - great middle for a lot of things

Eryn/Erin - not a good middle

Carys - no

Kirsten- good middle for some things

I have to be partial to Taryn - that's my little girl's name! (her name is Taryn Samantha). Using the middle names you've chosen, I really like Taryn Jade and Taryn Paige.

I hope you go with Taryn - I get compliments on my Taryn's name wherever I go!!! It's so beautiful!! Good luck!!
