Shane for a girl's name?

Hi Everyone,

DH and I are considering naming our little girl Mila Shane (pr MEE-LA). Middle name Shane is my husband's first name but we think it might be pretty and different for a girl. Any opinions on use of the name for a girl or the flow of Mila Shane? Runner up is Mila Rose.

Thanks so much!

I like it. I think the feminine first name is great, and there will be no confusion about the sex of your daughter. Also, I love the fact that it honors her father. I say go for it.

i'd go with Shayne for a girl, even as a mn. but Shane is just fine too!

I think Mila Shane is very nice, much better than Mila Rose, IMO.

I would keep the Shane spelling- I do not like Shayne, Shaine, etc. I do not think that the extra -y or -i make it any more feminine, plus the Shane spelling makes the clearest tie to her dad. Go for it!!!

Mila Shane is beautiful and less predictable than Mila Rose
