WDYT of Delaney (girl)?

CutieBean79 · January 2013

Yes? No? I like the nns Lane and Laney. Sister is Addison.

pinkleopard11 · January 2013

I think it's cute.. especially while they're little, but not so much for an adult.

magsugar13 · January 2013

Not a fan

Mom2katiec · January 2013

Nms but I do like Laine or Lane

That.Just.Happened · January 2013

I think it is perfect with Addison. Delaney to me is a great, old fashioned southern name that you don't hear too often.

lifeonthehill · January 2013

I am in love with this name and the nick name lane/laney!

alphalyrae · January 2013

I think it's cute. I used to work for a summer camp and there was a Delaney and Emily sibset. They were both sassy and fun little girls.

blueturkey12 · January 2013

I like it! It'd be on my short list, but DH vetoed it.

Yes

ChristyML · January 2013

A long time ago, this was on my girl name list. I have since changed my liking for it, but I still like it. Do you like the nn Della?

Happy2BPregnant · January 2013

I like it. It reminds me of a southern girl. I don't think I'd ever use it but it's a cute name. I also really like the nn Laney.

luckylauren14 · January 2013

I like it. And I hear it more often these days. My friend's DD spells it Delanie though I've seen it Delaney more.

brooksidebride · January 2013

I like the name, and the nns. And I think it goes perfectly with Addison.

snowybride08 · January 2013

I'm not a fan.

hjk5000 · January 2013

I think it's cute, but I don't love it. I taught a Delaney once and she was very sweet, I just felt after saying her name over and over again it was a little too clunky.

jburdet1 · January 2013

Definitely a guilty pleasure name for me! I love the sound of it and do think it's cute, but not so much I cant see it on an adult.

alohachrissy2 · January 2013

I LOVE it and it was on my short list, I also am scared about it growing with her but not enough to take it off my wish list

kellmo · January 2013

I love it. It's a great Irish name! I only know 1 little girl with that name and I always think how cute of a name it is.

JaysonandKristin · January 2013

Nope. Don't like it.

DaisyZH · January 2013

I adore Delaney, I would totally use it if my last name didn't start with D. Also love Laney as a nn.

Bookelly · January 2013

Love it! It sounds great with Addison.

BTW- the only Delaney I know is an adult and a doctor, so I think it ages just fine.

magpie1127 · January 2013

It isn't my personal style, but I love it for people who like "modern" names! It sounds fab with Addison!

kayjay10 · January 2013

It generally doesn't get a lot of love on this board, but I really like it. And I love the nn Laney. I don't think it's too cutesy to where it wouldn't age well. Goes really great with Addison too!

giggles0918 · January 2013

I don't but that's because there's a store near me named that this is a cheap second hand store and very run down. I can't get past that when I hear the name.

I came across somebody with this spelling, and I had to keep correcting it in my head not to make it rhyme with Melanie.

Delaney is kind of a GP name for me. I think it's very cute but wouldn't use it.

swimiz500 · January 2013

Not a fan of it either.

nikip6454 · January 2013

I don't hate it but I don't love it either! I can't picture an adult Delany but there are far worse "aging" names out there.

JLGY · January 2013

I like it with nn Dela. I know an 31 year old Dela and it fits an adult well.

+ASH+ · January 2013

I like it for a boy or a girl. I think Laney sounds like a little girl and she would have the option to go by her full name as an adult. It's a nice name.

guilletskichuk · January 2013

I really like it and its nns. I can see an adult with this name. I also like it with Addison as a sibset. Go for it!

ap142193 · January 2013

Love it

kcox123 · January 2013

I like it. I know a girl named Delaney and her NN is Laney. If it were my name I would probably go by Lane as I got older..or maybe Delaney..But not Laney/Lanie. Just my thoughts. But I like it generally. It's not my taste in terms of a name I'd pick...but its pretty and not weird which are my main things I look for.

BC&LM · January 2013

If you like the nicknames Lane or Laney, I think the name Elaine is a much better choice. Delaney sounds much too masculine to me.

Foutzie44 · January 2013

I personally love it and love the nn Laney

Hearhoot · January 2013

I think it's a great name...and I don't see any problem with it aging. Any form of the name you mentioned could fit an adult...as well as be adorable for a child.
