Cheyenne/Cheyanne

in Baby Names

This is totally off base from the rest of the names we are considering (Eliza, Molly, and Charlotte), but DH is in love with this name and I just wanted to get some opinions. 

Thoughts?

    I kind of like it. But I've never seen it spelled with an "A".

    It's different and not over used to me it has a little bit of a country feel to it . I have good associations with the name so that may infulence my decision. If you do use it keep the original spelling good luck picking between the names I love Molly and Charlotte!

    I've never cared for this name, but I LOVE Eliza, Molly, and Charlotte.  Cheyenne is not my style at all.

    Meh. It's a little granola for my tastes, but it's not a bad name. Definitely go with the -enne spelling, though.

    I think your other choices go much better with your daughter's name.

    I have a brand new niece named Cheyenne :)

    It's nms, personally, but I don't have any reason to not like it. There is a really cute little girl in DD1's class with blonde ringlets named Cheyenne and my niece is quite the beauty :)

    NMS, but nothing wrong with it.

    I would say that if you're going to go with it, just spell it correctly.

    Cheyenne: yes

    It's certainly not terrible but NMS, but please spell it traditionally as Cheyenne

    My youngest sisters name is Sheyenne Alexandra and I absolutely LOVE her name =)... I do have to say that of your other names, the only one I like is Eliza.

    Good luck deciding!

    Waiting patiently for my turn.

    Thanks ladies, I wasn't sure about the Cheyanne spelling, I didn't know if the pronunciation was different.  But, if we do use it we'll stick the original.  Still not sure if I'm sold, but I do like it.

    Cheyenne is the correct spelling. I tend to think this, used as a name, is especially trashy.

    I have to agree.  It sounds WT to me, sorry.

    I really love Eliza, Molly, and Charlotte.

    Cheyenne, to me, is "country" bordering on redneck. A lower-class Savannah (and that is generous because I don't like Savannah as a name either).  Sorry!

    One other thought to consider.  Some native americans are offended when their tribal names are used for babies.  I don't know much about it, but I do remember a thread on another baby name board where a woman (who is native american) was very offended by names like Cheyenne.

    Cheyenne is a stripper-ish name in my opinion. I've only known a few in real life, and they have all been trashy people. I don't like it.

    I used to have a good friend in college named Cheyenne- so I have really good associations with the name.  I like it...

    This.  It's a total No.
