I love Laney, especially as a nn for Delaney (my favorite) or Elena. Dash, not so much, I do like Cash and Nash though.

Laney is "okay" for a girl for a nickname. Elaine or Alayna,something like that for the first name. Dash.....NO.

I like Laney, but Dash sounds to me like...well, another cronie of DJ Jazzy Jeff and the Fresh Prince, lol...I don't know, I just picture the colorful clothes, the goofiness...Dash. But that's JMO.


best of luck to you!

I love Laney for a girl. we are considering it too. I am not sure whether I would want her name to be Laney or that Laney would be short for something. I'm not sure about Dash though.

Our ds would have been Delaney nn Laney/Lanie, so I like it.

But...as a Disney freak, Dash just makes me think of The Incredibles or an author...Dashiel(sp?) Hammett

Laney is nice as a nn for Elaine or similar. It doesn't stand on its own as a full name IMO. Likewise with Dash. I don't know what it could be a nn for, though. Dash definitely has both a ponce hairdresser and soap opera vibes, too.
