Baby Names

Hubby Approved

Ok, so I finally have DH's approval for these three final names. I love them all but that leaves the dilemma of not being able to pick one. Yoinks....Help!

1. Riley

2. Raegan

3. Zayla

TIA!

Re: Hubby Approved

  • None are my style at all. If I had to pick I would pick Reagan. I don't like Riley on a girl at all. I feel like Zayla is just a play on Layla and I don't care for the sound. I don't care for Reagan because it feels trendy but I think it's the best out of

  • I can't pick because I don't like any if your choices!

    Riley is too trendy for me, Raegan is a surename spelled wrong and Zayla is made up. I do like Rhiannon, Meagan and Leila!

  • I like Raegan the best of your choices.  I think if you spell it that way, she may have people misspelling her name all of the time though.

  • This is a difficult one, because I don't really like any of the options. I highly dislike made-up names & spellings (Rae is cute, but Raegan is going to be a pain with everyone automatically spelling it Reagan). I know an awesome (girl) Riley, so that

  • I would love Azalea NN Zayla. I don't like Riley or Raegen.

  • Maybe it's just me but I think even if you spell Reagen correctly you can still use the nn Rae. It's not so much about the spelling as it is the sound if you ask me.
  • Sorry, but I don't like any of your choices and your DS has such a great name that your girl list doesn't seem to compare.

    If I have to choose, I would go with Reagan. (You can still use the nn Rae without spelling it Raegan)

  • I don't like any of the names, but Raegan if I had to choose. And I agree, you can spell it Reagan and still  use the nn Rae.

  • Riley is way too popular right now for my taste. It feels like that name is absolutely everywhere.

    I like Reagan ok, but I am not crazy about the Raegan spelling. If you're looking for Rae as a nickname, what about Rachel, Raelyn, or Raina?

  • Riley I feel is a boy name.

    Reagan, spelled properly, ought by all rights to be a boy name, but for whatever bizarre reason, my memories of the '80s notwithstanding, it's become a girl name.  To save headaches, I would spell it correctly; yo

  • I have really mixed feelings on boy names for girls & cannot stand made up names. Raegan on the other hand is the name of the female lead character in one of my very favorite books so I would get behind that one. It does still have some issues to cons

  • Our friends named their daughter Zay.la I really can't stand it. I agree it screams "look at us....we're so unique"! Barf. Riley Reagan spelled this way are trendy but better than Zayla imo.

  • Reagan is my top choice of the three

    I've heard of Zayla, but I've seen it spelled Zaila and it's a Spanish name, mainly with Dominican/Puerto Rican families.

  • Unlike PPs, I have never heard Riley as a boy's name.  Hoever, I know at least six girl Rileys, so I'd rule it out because of that.

    I think Raegan is the best of those three, but like others, I don't care for the spelling.  Lots of nick

  • As the mother if a Reagan, I may be biased. :) 

    however, please do not use a made up spelling. You already have two spellings to contend with (Reagan or Regan ). Don't add something that doest exist.

  • Raegan is my fav but agree with pp's - don't like the spelling.  Prefer Reagan.  You can still call her Rae even if you spell it Reagan...

  • Can't pick, hate them all.

  • I've heard the name Zayla only once before and the person I heard it from decided they liked something else better. Personally, I love the name Zayla. It's kind of modern but hasn't become so popular that it isn't unique. Hands down, I like it the best.
