What do you prefer? Zahlia or Zahli, We are TTC at the moment, and we are hoping it will be a girl biggrin.gif

I prefer Zahlia, and also my name rhymes with Zahli, so that would be weird..

What do you think? Would you spell it like that?

A friend has a little girl called "Zali" (pronounced like Bali). I think it is lovely.

Zahalia sounds like Tahlia that you have changed.

I like both but slightly prefer Zahlia, especially if your name rhymes with Zahli. If you use Zahlia you can always have Zahli as a nickname if you like.

I like Zahli wub.gif Zahlia is nice to though, if you used Zahlia then Zahli could be used as a NN so you could have both I suppose.

I am a mum of a Zahli and I love it.. it suits her so well.. and couldn't possibly think of her having any other name.

They are both lovely. Zahli nn is Zar Zar... lol which I think we will just use while she is little.. only I call her that. I think Zahli would get nn lee at school maybe, Zahlia would get something like Leah.

Now look how cute she is.. HAHA.. sorry couldn't help myself
