To be honest, most of the names look like you're trying VERY hard to be different. It kind of looks like you selected Scrabble tiles at random, and tried to make names from the combinations.

I voted for April - it's so pretty, but not at all cutesy, and it will grow up well.

Okay... I started commenting individually on all of them, but my comments were pretty harsh, and I don't necessarily wnat to me. That said, I do think you need to know that most of the names on your list are just plain ridiculous. They are a jumble of letters, not a name. Many people will assume that you, or your daughter, is uneducated or trashy (not saying taht I think think this) because you don't know how to spell. Be prepared for this if you spell these names like this. It doesn't make the name unique, it just makes you look dumb, and will probably just make your daughter embarrased as she gets older.


Isla "eye-luh" is STUNNING! Isla Whitney is a name for a "lovely girl". The others are mostly (with a few exceptions) just bad, bad, bad.

I think the spellings are beautiful, i had a friend who named her daughter Baylei instead of the usual Bayley because it is different and definitely not trashy, the SOUND of a name makes it pretty or trashy, not the spelling, LOL i've never in my life here someone say a little girls name was trashy because it had an extra "e" or "i" in her name. They are lovely names.

That's the thing a lot of person don't think of when picking a name- they are going to be little girls for only a small part of their life. Sure, it's cute (well, maybe to you- I definitely don't think cute) to spell it like that, but wouldn't you be embarrased with a name like Gennifyer instead of Jennifer? My namewould be changed as soon as I was old enough to do so!

I like Kiersten April...I think it's fresh and lovely. Though I do like the Kjerstin spelling, to be a little more true to the Scandinavian roots of the name. (And I like watching the face people make when you put that j after the K...it's unpredictable, but authentic. Love that!)

Maybe it's because I do some graphic arts, but the way a name LOOKS has as much importance as the sound...and it does affect the sound as well...Baylei would actually get bay-lay out of me because of the Hawaiian word "lei," which is the only context I can put that conglomeration of letters into. (Of course, to me, Bailey would be the usual spelling...)

But people do actually judge a bit on how a name is spelled. One spelling can indicate a name is English; another can indicate that it's German; another...that someone had a few too many letters left on their mental Boggle board.
