OKay, so me and my husband are stuck between two names for our daughter. I need some help. We both like both of them just the same so, we need a vote to see what the general public thinks is the cutest name. LOL. Thanks for all of your help!
I like JayLynn over Rhea, but think Rhea sounds better with Jane. Maybe a different middle name? The JA- at the beginning of both names sort of clashes to me.
I like Rhea Jane, it flows nicer. But would consider spelling Rhea differently because she'll constantly be called Ree-Uhh... and that could leadLead poisoning to some pretty embarressing childhood "nicknames"! eeek!!
I really think JayLynn is cute but it doesn't go with the middle name Jane at all it just doesn't sound right. But I agree with babydreams9 I would change the spelling on Rhea because I don't think anybody would pronounced it as Raya. But Rhea Jane goes together.
Oh that is an awesome idea, msgorgeous!!! Rhealynn or RheaLynn is very pretty. My youngest's middle name is "Lynn" after her Nonna (my MIL). Abigail Lynn is her full name. I can't remember what Lynn means though. I think it means "water running over" or something like that.
The name JayLynn is pretty, but paired with the middle name Jane, the two J sounds clash to me. I purposefully stayed away from the J-sounds when going thru the lists for a middle name for our baby just because it sounds too J-ey. =D
Like others have said, Rhea Jane flows much nicer, and I do love the way they fit ...but to avoid mispronunciation and mean names in her future, try a different spelling.
Wow ladies! Thanks for all of your help! I definitely want her middle name to be Jane because we are naming her after my mom. So, my only option is to change her first name. LOL.
How about Rhia? Is that a little better? The name RheaLynn is so cute, but the down side is that I have a cousin named RaeLynn. LOL.
Rhia Jane? Any bidders? LOL. Thanks again for everything!!!
On the spelling how about Raya - looks just like it is pronounced. I am a teacher and know kids get so mad when you mispronounce their names. Sometimes I wish parents would just spell it like it sounds (for the sake of their kids of course, they are the ones who get angry).
I like Rhea but agree with the poster above that suggested alternate spellings so people say her name correctly when reading it. I don't think Jane goes well with the first choice.
jaylynn its cute and easy for people to pronounce my moms names spelt odd.....renea (renee) and she hates how people call her weird things. most people wont know how to pronounce rhea, because when i first looked at it it looked like ray - hey or something
Rhea Jane is VERY CUTE!!! I love namesakes (that Jane is after your mom is so sweet!). My firstborn's middle name is Joi and my second's middle name (Lynn) is after my MIL.
I like Rhea Jane personally. But my daughters are or will be Nevada Reigh-Ann (3 yrs old) and London Chesney (baby due in Oct) so I go for the unique names. I don't want my kids to have several other people in their class with the same name (like mine -Amanda, there were 6 of us in my class one year)
For spelling, how about..... Raiya, Rayah, Raeya
My votes for...oh gosh this ones a toughy! Umm...Rhea!
good luck!
MedHelp should put up a way we can actually do polls!
Like others have said, Rhea Jane flows much nicer, and I do love the way they fit ...but to avoid mispronunciation and mean names in her future, try a different spelling.
Also remember to put both names (and just the first name alone) with your last name to see how it flows.
Both names are beautiful and I hope you figure out which suits your little girl best!!
lamb go with rhealynn lol but im not sure on the middle name tho sorry rhealynn is my choice and maybe yours too? lol
How about Rhia? Is that a little better? The name RheaLynn is so cute, but the down side is that I have a cousin named RaeLynn. LOL.
Rhia Jane? Any bidders? LOL. Thanks again for everything!!!
Just an idea, Let us know what you decide! =) Good luck!
