I'm pregnant with our fourth child. We have 3 dds; Megan, Julia, and Claire. We'll probably have another girl, LOL, but what do you think of the name Griffin for a boy? Also, as long as I'm asking questions, we decided we liked Lila for a girl, but how would you spell it? How do you think Griffin

Those are both very nice picks that fit in awfully well w/your girls' names.

I LOVE Griffin, and it goes well with the other names. Not sure about Lila, though, are you going for the pron. Lee-Lah, or L-eye-lah. If its the second, I think Lilah or Lylah are better. Either name is NMS, but it would certainly fit in with your other DD's. Good Luck!

I love Griffin. My DH won't let me have that name.

Love both and think that Lila is a prefectly clear way to spell it.

I have never been able to get into Griffin (because of the mythical creature, the gryphon). Also, it feels trendy to me -- less of a classic than your other kids' names. I'd love Graham, Garrett or Grant as an alternative.

I love Lila - very pretty, and

I like Lila, but I'd probably spell it Lilah. Griffin is okay, but it feels so trendy to me, and I agree with another pp that I can't think of anything other than the mythical creature.

I love them both, but I would prob. add the "h" as well for pronunciation purposes. Best of luck!

I love both Griffin and Lila! I would spell the girls name as Lilah. Both names go very well with Megan, Julia and Claire.
