Ok so in my other thread re: london for a girl, a few people commented that London didnt fit well with my other girls names and also that i need a middle name to continue the theme also of my other two DD's.

So the first name must have a Y in it, and the middle name must be 4 letters and start and finish with A.

(i didnt even realise this when naming DD2, it was not an intentional thing).

Aliyah Asia
Jayda Asha

So please make some suggestions all i can come up with is:

First name:

Amaya
Kyah
Tyra
Tyla
Indy

Middle Name:

Ayla
Aria

Also i do love the name Ayla could i get away with using it as a middle name, if DD1 is called Aliyah?

Thanks,
V

Anna

Anna
Anya

MN's:

Alba
Anya/Anja
Anna
Anka
Alia
Aura

Anya - spelling for slavic and russian heritage

variant spelling is Anja - for dutch heritage

This is a form of Anna, very common in Europe and used as a nickname for little girls named Anna.

Is the name of Audrey Hepburn's character in Roman Holiday.

As an aside OP I wouldn't personally worry whether their names match, both my boys have X names and everyonw joked that we needed to name DD Xena to continue the tradition but we love her name and no one even notices that it doesn't 'match' the boys, also one of my sons has a family name and DD has a family name as middle names but DS2 simply has a name we liked at the time. I certainly wouldn't be sacrificing names you like just for the sake of some name pattern.

Alva

Taya Aria?

Does it really have to be four letters?

Africa
Antarctica
Australia

would complement Asia nicely.

Maya

Mila?

Elyse Aria

I'm sure when people commented about the name 'fitting in', they didn't mean it had to replicate the number of letters and the letters in the name. If you were to widen the criteria a little, there are lots of names which would go well with your other daughters' names:

Middle names:

Zara
Tara
Cara
Anya

Was there really any need for that? Im not sure if you are trying to be funny or what?

Not starting with A but....

Ella
Emma
Isla
Elka (more commonly spelt Elke)

Alma
This is lovely girl in DS's class

Ayla?

Asia is the name of a continent and it starts and ends with A. So are my suggestions.

And clearly you like place names, as you suggested London. So I'd have thought my suggestions were quite appropriate.

wow that is hard! I wonder did whoever said to stick with the theme did they actually mean the letter combinations or the "feel"?Aliyah and Jayda have the same sort of "feel" to me but London doesn't quite fit? Might make the criteria a bit easier....

"Does it really have to be four letters?

oh and this just looked like a misunderstanding to me - I didn't think senecio was trying to be funny or make fun of you at all x

I love Aria

Aida

I second Anya / Ania / Anja.

Anna, Adia and Aura are also quite nice.

Or maybe a few more letters such as Angela, Andrea, Alexa, Ambra?

For first names, how about something like Hayley, Allyson, Soraya, Dayna, Carly, Yara, Alyssa, Lauryn, Kayla, Kayleigh or Bethany?

I personally like Bethany Anya or Lauryn Alexa.

How about Aria - think it's Irish...

i like pp suggestion of maya - i think it fits in really nicely with your other DD's names - maybe maya anna. i also like aria could you use it as a first name i know one but she spells is ariah.

My eldest two have a y in their first name and i wanted another with a y in for the third - we had a girl and few we had on our list were Darcy and Alyssa although that may be too close to your other DD's name.

Others i can think of are

Kyla
Macy
Lacey
Hayley
Shraya
Freya
Daisy
Molly
Milly


As for the middle name

Asha
Aria
Afia

Mikayla Anna
Kyrstal Anna

Stacey Anya
Tyley Anya

Elyce Aida
Ruby Aida

Ayla is a bit to similar to Aliya. Ayda (or Aida) would be nice. You could even do Ayva/Aiva.

I like Aria too (I think you'll find it's Italian), but the "A" has a very different sound to both Asia and Asha.

I once met a girl called Arna.

First names:

Nyssa
Nyree
Nyah

Not sure about middle names but some first names with y in them

Nataya
Nyah
Kyra

aria was the first name that popped into my head when i read the title on your post

how about tanya or sonya!

Verity
Yasmin
Yvette

First Name:
Avlynn
Lynda
Kayla
Livya
Varya

Middle Name:
Avia - means 'God is my father'
Avya
Adia
Abia

That's all I could come up with

I was going to suggest Arna ... it's pretty



Please "no" to Kyra ... I have to spell it constantly, it is always mispronounced and I have resorted to introducing myself as Ky!

Thankyou so much for all the replies!

I never thought i would have this much trouble choosing a name, DD1 was a name we had chosen before i was ever pregnant, DD2 well her name was a choice of two and chosen straight after she was born but this time i feel like i keep second guessing myself.....

Cant wait till Monday now to find out if its a boy or a girl.

Thanks again
V
