Help! Running out of girl names....
15
Tue, 01-16-2007 - 4:23pm
My husband and I have four daughters; Gabriela, Victoria, Laura and Sarah. We thought Sarah was the last one we'd have, and thought she'd be a little different with the silent H at the end. Now, we're pregnant with our fifth, and although we don't know yet if its a girl, we are having a hard time coming up with names! We think we want to keep the 'a' sound at the end but can't seem to agree. My husband likes Ana which I think is boring (no offense meant to anyone!), and I like Helena (pronounced Ha-lay-na; my husband says people will pronounce it Helen-a). I like Paula & Paulina, but my husband's name is Paul and he feels people will think we desperately wanted a boy and named our girl after him! Anyway, are there any suggestions you can make? Nothing too different nor too common, ending in 'a'.... Any help is greatly appreciated!!

Hi,

I have two names that may interest you... Jessica and Tayla. These are the name of my two nieces. I am not quite sure where my sister-in-law came up with the name Tayla but it is unique.

Good Luck!
