We are TTC number 2. While I was pregnant last time (ended up a mc) I stumbled across the name Layna. I looked it up and it's Greek and means truth.... so not a made up name! it is the first girls name I have been excited about. What do you think about it? would you side eye it? I feel like it meets my criteria, easy to say, spell, not popular but not Youneek. Thoughts. ( I don't like Layla, which I know would be the more common version of this)

The McC 3 - DH, (38) Me, (34) and DS (3) A.J.M. - Born 6/11/13 after 17 BFNs including 1 failed IUI. Maybe Baby #2 - Started TTC Feb 2015. Called it quits after 29 cycles.
I side eye A LOT of names. A lot. (I work at a school so I constantly have newer and stranger names walking through.) I would not side eye Layna. I think it's really pretty.
Why not just use the traditional Elena? (Recognizable in Greek, Russian, Hispanic, etc)
My name is Alayna, and it is a giant pain in the ass every day of my life because people cannot spell or pronounce it. And fyi, I'm Greek but that really didn't help the situation.

I think it will blend in with the Layne /lane/delaneys
