Names with ley in it!
| Wed, 01-25-2006 - 12:17pm |
I have a name picked out but my husband isn't sold on it and I'm starting to see his point....Malia Sophie Jane is a little much for a girl...and still undecided for a boys name!! When your last name is already 13 letters long...and with that said we named our son Elijah Scott...and call him Eli for short. Sometimes I think I would like to use something biblical like his. But I would like to use part of my maiden name in the first name...Timperley....so I'm thinking ley at the end of a name. We have another 3 weeks until we find out what we are having so I'm open to both boy and girl names....Riley being a common ley...I would like something different...and still beable to shorten it.....I need help!! Please!! And Thank you for any comments!!

why the double middle name - you're already saying your last name is long, 13 letters, you don't need 2 middle names
I love Malia -it's so pretty. I known one spelled Maliya and I kind of like that. Either spelling is good. the thing I think is you don't need a 3-syllable middle name or one that also ends in A. I think Malia Jane _________ would be great. Is the Jane a family name? Your son doesn't have two middles, why the two middles for the girl?
I don't personally care for Riley - too unisex. I know both boys and girls with it and it's way off the style of Elijah
good luck
Sorry I should have said.....Malia Sophie Jane.....is trying to use all grandma's names....If a girl it will have the middle name Jane for sure...my grandma who passed away a couple of years ago...who gave that name to herself when she was a little girl...after hearing her mom talk about this Lady in town who was Nice and just a Wonderful Lady.
So my thought was to try to include everyone....my husbands grandma's Marie and Lillian...so I came up with Malia....both have passed also. So that leaves me with Malia Jane....which I do love....but I still have a living Grandma...and then would be leaving her out....Geraldine Ester Sophie Claire ....which she has three middle names. My thought was if we were to use Malia Sophie Jane....everyone would be covered and I would just call her Lia for short. So it would be Elijah and Malia.... Eli and Lia for short.
Now I'm open for other names...now that my husband doesn't love it. Still would like Jane for a middle name if a girl...but I need idea's. Bring on the ley names!! Thanks!!

The second child is harder, isn't it???
The first thing that came to mind was-
Brinley, then you have the option of Brin.
I also thought for a boy you could do Timperley and call him Tim. Tim and Eli is cute. OR- even Timothy from the Bible, and still first three letters of your maiden name- and call him Tim.
It is very important to consider your last name when it's that long!!!
Here are some others that came to mind-
Boy
Brantley
Langley
Hartley
Huntley
Girl
Brantley, Langley, Morley, Marley, Harley, Haley, Kinley, Kinsley, McKinley, Kimberley
Or -
Why not Biblical with your maiden name?
Joshua Timperley- Josh & Eli
Noah Timperley- Noah & Eli
Caleb Timperley- Caleb & Eli
Seth Timperley- Seth & Eli
Daniel Timperley- Dane & Eli
Samuel Timperley- Sam & Eli
Abraham Timperley- Abe & Eli
Lydia Timperley
Sarah Timperley
Rebecca Timperley- Becca & Eli
Leah Timperley- Leah & Eli
Hope this helps! Ginger

Boys-
Bailey nn Bay
Casey on it's own, or maybe nn Cas
Stanley nn Stan
Wesley nn Wes-I like that a lot w/Eli.
Girls-
Delaney nn Laney
Hayley
Keeley
Sorry there aren't too many that aren't too nick-namey for full names, you know? Hope this helps!
