Girl Middle Names with Y in them

MKMandeville · May 2017

I need some help. We finally settled on a girl name but we need help with a middle name.

DD's middle name is Rayne (rain) and we would like something similar for #2.

What are your favorites?

Thank you ladies! I cannot believe how many you are all coming up with.

The first name will be Lainey.

My DH actually mentioned Skye. I really like Brynn.

Thank you again! So much to think about. I do not remember this much trouble naming DD.

With Lainey I'd stick with names that have y in the middle, not at the end. Some of these are repeats from PP--

Lainey Faye
Lainey Brynn
Lainey May
Lainey Joy
Lainey Gwyneth
Lainey Blythe
Lainey Taryn
Lainey Jocelyn
Lainey Amaryllis
Lainey Yvette
Lainey Yvonne
Lainey Arya
Lainey Amaya

Lainey Yves (pron "Eve")

+1 for Lainey Joy.

So far we have Lainey Skye and Lainey Rhyse in the running. I really like Lainey Joy too but DH isn't going for it.

The only thing about Lainey Rhyse is I'm not sure if it would be too matchy with DD. Her first name starts with L (two syllables) and her middle name is Rayne. It wasn't intentional to do two L's it just kind of happened that way.

My mom and dad did the same initials with my sister and I and not sure I want to follow suit.

I vote Lainey Skye, for the following reasons.

1. Rhyse? Like is that supposed to be Rhys with an extraneous e? No. Ovary up and spell it right if you want to use a masculine name for a girl, that's just confusing.

2. I always vote for giving your kids some individuality, so I wouldn't repeat R middle names (can you imagine the fights if they like monograms? I have an older sister, I can)

3. No seriously though, rhyse is confusing and the same initial, number of letters with a Y in the middle is borderline Duggar Cult.

Thank you for input @Bringmemylongswordho.

I would pronounce "rhyse" as "rice" so that's a little different...plus rhys is top of my list for boy so I hate to see it butchered like that.

MKMandeville · May 2017

I should have stated earlier DH is the one who wants a Y in the middle name. I'm not sure his reasoning other than he said he liked it with DD.

I'm completely open to any other middle names that you think flow with Lainey.

cantrellja · May 2017

Of the two, I'd definitely go with Lainey Skye. Rhyse is just Rhys butchered with an extra vowel (plus, spelled the way, I think it would be pron. RICE). I still like Lainey Yves.
