Baby Girl due any day.. Lily or Lila

red tiger

Please let me know what you think of my name choices... we will probably wait till we see her, but I would like some Input.

 

Liliana Nadine (Lily)

Lila Nadine or Lyla Nadine

 

I know they are pretty similar... Im not too worried about Lily being a popular name. I like to be more traditional with the spelling of names but for some reason I think Lyla Nadine looks better than Lila..   Thanks for your input!

I like Liliana waaay better than the NN Lily.  If it were me, I would choose that and correct anyone who tried to call her Lily.

frasey

Well I really dislike Lyla, so I vote for Lily!

HeyJune

I like Lilah Nadine (spelled that way).

I like Liliana too, but I just know SO many Lilys.

Did you consider Layla/Laila? It seems to fit your style.

I love Lila. I know 5 baby Lilys.

I vote for Lila, it's my mom's name (see my post below about Lily!), and it has always served her well! I don't like it with a y.

I like Lilah Nadine (spelled that way).

Exactly this!

Lily!

My vote would definitely be for Lila Nadine. Beautiful name! I think that it will grow better. And for some reason, the name Lily just grates on me.

This exactly. If you were going to use Liliana as her name and correct people who tried to call her Lily then I would choose that as well.

I like Lila Nadine. Lily is one of the most popular names in my area and I am little sick of it.

Sunshine is mine

Lila! and thankyou for not throwing an unnecessary "H" on the end of it!

I love the name Lila.  My best friend's sister just named her daughter that, and it just sounds so pretty evey time I say it

i think lily is such a pretty nickname but i prefer lila [not lyla] to liliana. i love lillian, though.

robyn2201

Lila hands down! Do not like it with a "y".

Love Lila/Lyla!  Either spelling is fine with me, it is your decision at the end of the day.  I have a friend who named her little girl Lyla and she turns a year old this month.

While I do think Lily is a cute name, that's the problem. It's cute. I don;t think it grows well. I prefer Lila. Or actually, Lyla, but I'm in the minority on the spelling here.

I think Liliana is beautiful.  I like Lily as a nickname but definitely think Lillian or Liliana should be the full name so she has the option to not use a nn.

I prefer Lyla to Lila.  I knew a Lila that pronounced it Lee-la and another one that was pronounced Lil-ah.  If you want Lie-la then I'd do Lyla.

Lyla Nadine. I don't mind this spelling at all; it's cute! Just don't do what a co-worker of mine did, and spell is Lyllah. ugh.

lesliekins

I like both Lily and Lila (though I prefer Lilah spelling)

KateCollins11

Well, obviously, I prefer Lily...... We're naming our baby girl Lillian and calling her Lilly.

Liz4444

We are naming our girl Lilah, so I vote for that!

My DD's name is Lyla and I LOVE it. Yes it has the 'y' but I didn't make that up or try to be trendy. FTR, an 80 year old lady at my church is named and spelled this way. It's not new!

I liked the way LYla looked better than Lila and thought the Y would help people pronounce it correctly rather than Lil-a or Lee-la.

Just my two cents!

I absolutely LOVE Lila/Lyla.  I kind of like how Lila looks better, but would hate for someone to pronounce it lee-lah, so I think I would lean more towards Lyla for pronunciation purposes.

munchi005

We were considering Lila or Lyla too. I think too many people would call her Lee-La or LiL-A if spelled Lila. So I prefer Lyla.

lila!

I like Lila!

I love Lily. I think it's adorable in childhood and elegant in adulthood. The only problem is it's popularity, but you said that doesn't bother you. I'm not a big fan of Lila. I think my bias against it comes from Sweet Valley High. It just sounds like a snobby name.

35baby

Lyla all the way and like the middle name too.
