My late grandmothers name is Dorathea, to honor her we would like to use it as a middle name. Just curious on someone’s opinion of Skylar Dorathea?
Also if anyone has a unique spelling for Skylar , I like to be different.
thanks in advance mommas to be!

Skylar Dorothea is perfect, if thats what you choose to name her. Please leave the spelling alone. Its fine as is.

I think Skylar is a different enough name where you don’t need a different spelling to make it different. I’m not a fan of alternate spellings. I like using Dorothea as her middle name to honor your grandmother.

Skylar Dorothea is lovely and a beautiful way to honor your grandmother. I agree with the PP that there’s no reason to go with an alternate spelling.

I agree with the ladies above. I think misspelled names look slightly uneducated sometimes. Congratulations on your baby girl.
