What are your opinions on this name?

What do you think of it with the middle name Felicity?

    I prefer Ada. It sounds very old fashioned. Which is not a good thing or a bad thing...just a thing.

    I like Ada! Not really a fan of Felicity, but it's not bad as a mn for Ada.

    I like Ada Renee, Ada Katherine, Ada Claire, or Ada Sophia

    Just wondering everyones opinions. Adah is the Biblical spelling but I tend to like the Ada spelling better and think it's less likely to be mispronounced.

    There is no Biblical spelling in English, since the Old Testament was originally written in Hebrew, and the English is just a translation.  Further, in Hebrew the name is pronounced Ah - dah, with the emphasis on the second syllable.  So if you prefer Ada you should definitely do Ada.

    It's a nice name, and it goes well with Penelope. I prefer it spelled Ada.

    I was just looking at Behind the Name and it lists the prn. as AY-d?, so that's what I was going by.

    ETA: I mean it lists this for the name Adah.

    I like it, spelled Ada and it works well w/ Felicity.    I know a Ada that's a teenager and she's a sweet girl.

    Ada is cute and I prefer that spelling. Bonus: It's a palindrome!

    I really like Ada, and I think Ada Felicity is really cute and flows nicely. My DH and I considered this name, because of Ada Lovelace, she was a mathematician and is considered to have written the first computer program, and my DH is a computer programmer, but we had settled on Pearl as a middle name (family name) and Ada Pearl, sounded like she Ate-a Pearl, so Ada with a noun middle name wouldn't work at all.
