Ashlynn Grace
Ava Kendall
Bria Gabrielle
Elyssa Grace
Gabriella Paige
Abigayle Grace
Jillian Paige
Jenna Alyson
Kaylynn Abigayle
Lauryn Ryleigh
Lillian Taylor
Savannah Paige

I had the same problem, but when it came down to the time she was born, I had 3 that went well with our last name. Just try to put them all together one by one and see which ones you like better with your last name....but I really like RILEY PAIGE.....HTH!!

Oooh! Long lists are fun! What I usually do is make comments on each name. Combos follow my comments-
Aaliyah- A beautiful name, though a bit trendy at this point. Your spelling is correct but I've always preferred the alternate spelling- Aleah.
Alyson- Timeless. Grows up well. I much prefer the original Allison better, though.
Arielle- Beautiful name. Different and pretty at any age. Thumbs up!
Ashlynn- Overdone. There are prettier names on your list.
Audra- I like this one a lot. You don't hear it much either. Keep in mind the huge popularity of Audrey though. She may looked upon as your trying to come up with a variant of that name. Kind of like Michaela, Kayley, Kayla, Haley, Bailey, etc.
Ava- Appealing name. Too done right now.
Beckalynn- Interesting. I think I'd be more inclined to fall for Bekka Lynn.
Bria- I've always loved the simplicity of this one, and it's recognizable without being overly trendy or popular.
Brianna or Bryanna- Prefer the simpler, less popular Bria.
Brielle- I like the name. I don't love it. Great mn. Have you considered Briellen?
Brilynn- This one tries too hard, I think.
Caressa- I always pause at this name in my baby name dictionary. I prefer Carys, though,...I think.
Corinne- Adorable name. A lovely alternative to the ever-popular Catherine and the right-now-popular Camille. I only like it as cor-rinn though, NOT cor-reen
Elyssa- I'd rather see you consider Alyssa (though it's too popular for my taste) or Elyssia, which has a fantastic meaning and doesn't look like Alyssa spelled wrong(Elyssa)
Emilie- I've heard Emily too much. I love Amelie and Emilie (ee-mill-ee) but no one gets either one right.
Eva- Gorgeous. But it's right behind Ella, which is right behind Emma. You have more original choices on your list.
Evelynn- Pronounced Evelyn or Eve-lynn? If it's the first pronunciation, then spell it Evelyn. If it's the second pronunciation, I would prefer Eve Lynn as a double name. Evelyn is okay. She'd fit in great with all the Avas, Charlottes, Amelias, and Audreys.
Gabriella- While I find nothing wrong with the name, it's just kind of another name to me. I guess you hear it often enough that it's not particularly special. Pretty name though. One of the rare names that is just plain precious on a little girl and morphs into totally sexy on a grown woman, IMO.
Gabrielle- This one is more grown up.
Gayle (middle)- Would make a fine mn with many of your choices.
Grace (either)- Too, too used. For either.
Jacklynn or Jacquelyn- Has never been a fave, but Jacqueline is considered a great classic. One positive- it's not well-used today. If you're looking for a good nn, I like Lina (leena).
Janelle- Prefer Janella or Genelle.
Jaylynn- No, no, no. Jay- sound is everywhere.
Jeannette (middle)- Great mn!
Jennica- I love this name. And contrary to what many people think, it's a "real name" not a trendy mix-up of Jennifer and Jessica. I really like it!
Jillian- A real gem. I prefer the original Gillian, but Jillian is certainly an acceptable variant. Lovely at any age. Great choice!
Jenna- Is okay, sort of used up, at this point, but nothing wrong with the name. Its attraction lies both in its simplicity and its complexity.
Kaelynn- See notes on Jaylynn.
Kaliyah- On a scale of 1-10, ten being the highest, I'd give it 6 1/2.
Karissa- It's pretty.
Kayleigh- See notes on Kaelynn.
Kaylynn- Ditto.
Kyndle or Kendall- Kendall is a lovely name, though, I'm sorry to see, lately, quite trendy.
Lauryn- What about Laurel, which is the more appealing version of Lauren, IMO.
Leigha- I love Leah. Leigha tries too hard. Leah's meaning isn't great, though, as it means "weary." Still, a lovely name.
Lillian- Pretty but growing steadily in popularity. A great choice to fit in with today's naming style.
Lydia- Beautiful. See notes on Lillian, though.
Lynelle- Prefer Lynnette.
Madyson- Nope.
Meaghan or Meghan- Nice name...approaching the timeless/classic status.
Mckayla- Though I've heard it ten thousand times and seen it spelled as many ways, I still love the genuine original- Michaela.
Paige (middle)- Predictable though pretty middle name.
Raegan (middle)- Prefer the spelling Reagan. Very pretty mn.
Ryleigh (middle)- Too trendy.
Savannah- It's difficult for me to truly like this one because I live very near the tourist town of Savannah, GA. I've heard quite often on girls, too. I can see its appeal, though.
Shayna- I love this name. Always have. I like the spelling Shaina which has the great Yiddish meaning- beautiful.
Taylor (middle)- Can't warm up to it, even for a mn.
Shaina Lauren, Michaela Meghan, Bria Evelyn (evva-lyn), Audra Reagan, Leah Gabrielle, Elyssia Gayle, Lydia Jeannette, Jillian Paige, Arielle Savannah, Jennica Gayle, Jenna Meghan, Jacqueline Kendall or Kendall Jacqueline, Corinne Gabriella, Laurel Corinne
Best wishes and keep us posted! Ginger
