Kendyll - to be honest, if I saw this name, I would wonder if the new mother had said "Kendall" with a Southern accent to the birth certificate person and it was written down Kendyll. It's just too made-up looking for me.

Brooke is a pretty name. Brookley is a little too last namey for me.

I think Kendall or Brooke would serve her better as she grows up.

I totally agree with the pp. I voted for Kendyll, but really can't find a way to like this spelling. Quite honestly, besides looking mispelled, on first glance the main letters that stand out are Kyll ... looks like a murderous combination. ;) If you're absolutely tied to the double-letter thing (I'm assuming from the names listed), I'd go with the Kendall spelling suggested.

Brookley just looks like a trendy altered version of Brooke, but Brooke itself would be nice.

I agree with the pp. I prefer Kendall (this spelling) and am not fond of Brookley at all. I think Brooke or even Brooklyn has a nicer sound.

Good luck making a decision!

I completely agree. I much prefer Kendall to Kendyll, which looks like a spelling mistake. I don't like Brookley at all.
