Long time lurker, first time poster. Finally getting my nerve up to post on here, and need some advice. We love the name Brinley, but we don't know which version we like best. How would YOU spell the name? (middle name Grace)
ETA- We would most likely call her Brynn as her nickname
I like all spellings, but I think Brinley may be easier for people to attempt to spell. Of course, even with the most fool-proof spelling, mistakes still are made. My middle name is Faith but my SS card reads "Faiath". Haha
I voted Brynlee only because you want to call her "Brynn" I would probably add another n to her name spelling if that's how you're going to spell her nickname.
I just have a weird thing where I want the nickname to make sense! Like I totally don't get how Peggy is a nickname fit Margaret, and it doesn't make sense to me when "Katie" is a nickname for "Catherine"
Thanks for the advice, everyone! I hadn't even thought of the double n in the nickname and not in the name - can we just blame that on pregnancy brain? I'm big on the "no weird spellings" too, @Kimbus22, but we weren't sure if there WAS a proper spelling for that name, as we've seen it so many different ways!
@yayglitter, I can't believe that you SS card is spelled wrong! But that's a little funny! My maiden name was German and super 'weird' so I'm used to people asking me to spell, or re-pronounce my name, and I HATE it! So I want her name to be as easy as possible!
Re: Spelling for baby girl
Any of the spellings are nice!
