Down to a few, need some thoughts

in Baby Names

We are choosing names for a little girl.

Right now, our top names are: Brielle, Alannah, and Ashlyn.

Middle name will be Mabel or Rose depending on which first name we choose.

Thoughts?

    Brielle ? This is one of those names that is like nails on a chalkboard for me. I really really dislike it.

    Alannah ? Okay name, hate the spelling. I don't like uh-LAN-uh. Prefer Alana, uh-LAHN-uh.

    Ashlyn ? Hate. I just see Ashley, "y" trend, and bad Americanization of Aisling.

     

    Love Mabel. Rose is nice.

    I love both your middle name choices as first names!

    Out of your first name choices, though, I'd go with Brielle. It's a name I should dislike based on my overall taste, but for some reason I find it quite pretty. I know that's totally a backhanded compliment, but also the most honest way I can think to express my opinion.

    Really like Alanna--I prefer that spelling, but don't mind yours. Ashlyn is NMS, but I wouldn't side-eye it. Brielle looks and sounds unattractive to me.

    Like both MNs.

    Out of your three, I like Brielle the best.  Your first names are so modern & your middle names are so classic, so I'm a little confused.

    Sorry, but not a fan of Brielle, Alannah, or Ashlyn. I love Mabel and Rose though.

    My favorite is Ashlyn, but it may be because I went to high school with a number and they were all sweet girls. I feel the same way about Brielle; just not pretty to me. I don't like the way Alannah looks. I prefer the similar Hannah. I just adore Mabel especially as a fn! Rose is a little redundant as a mn, but refreshing as a fn.

    I really like Brielle and Ashlyn.

    Not a fan of Alannah.

    Not really a fan of the middle names either but think both would go well with your first name choices.

    Alannah by default because I really hate the other options.I generally prefer Mabel to Rose but Rose sounds better with Alannah.

    Yep, this.
