Thoughts on (my girl names)

Ok- so we have 2 girl names that we both like (of course my favorite, and DH favorite differs)

I have a Ryan already, so while I LOVE Riley sometimes I wonder if having 2 "Ry's" will be too much...


Thoughts?

Re: Thoughts on (my girl names)

i like them both. I think Ryan and Riley are cute, but if you plan on having more children and the name doesnt sound similar as similar as these 2, it might be a little off. Its hard to explain what im tryign to say,lol.

Re: Thoughts on (my girl names)

I like Riley too, but I can imagine it could get confusing because at times you would probably be tempted to call them both "Ry" for short.

Re: Thoughts on (my girl names)

Although I never call Dh by his name...

Re: Thoughts on (my girl names)

I vote for McKenna - I love it.
It's different - and you already have 2 Ryans in the house .......I think adding a Riley would be confusing .......

But this is also coming from someone who thinks it's kind of weird if every child MUST have a similar name (like you said if you have a 3rd it would 'have to' be an "R" name ........)

And my favorite boy name is Ryan, but my DH is Brian and I think that would confuse me too much too .....

I like Riley but I feel the same way. For the rest of your life you are going to be screaming Ry, Ry, Ri.......Chat Icon DD had a McKenna in her class this summer and I thought that name was adorable!

Re: Thoughts on (my girl names)

Marissa - Ryan would have been a Riley if he was a girl. Now I still love the name Riley but the name is off my list b/c they would both be "Ry" and I think it's too close.

McKenna is really cute!

That what my DH saidChat Icon

My 1st looks very irish (even though he is mostly italian) so I tend to like irish names better (assuming all of my children will look like him)

Who knows what this baby will look like though.Chat Icon
