Kristel

I just realized you have a Keira! We are planning on naming our little peanut Keira Rose.

Dh and I cannot agree on how to spell it. He wants it to be Kira. I imagine my little one just like Keira Knightly when she grows up so I'm pushing for spelling it with an e.

    You have such good taste in names!  :-) 

    My husband and I also considered Kira and Kyra.  Kyra was a "finalist" with Keira, but a surprising number of people said they thought that would be pronounced to rhyme with Tyra, like Tyra Banks.  So we went with Keira because we thought no one would mispronounce that.  Plus, I love Keira Knightly too, so I think it's a beautiful spelling.

    Sadly, we were wrong about the mispronunciation-- so many nurses and front desk people look at it and say ?Kiara.?  Grr.

    Rose was also one of my choices for the middle name, but DH vetoed it.

    We ruled out Kyra for the same reason. Kira was to plain for me but DH loves it. I even thought of Ke'ira to avoid any other pronounciations. I been spelling all documents and family blog as Keira to get DH use to. we will see who wins when we have to spell it on the birth certificate Wink

    Rose is my mom's name.
