Girl name help!!
So, I'm having a really tough time with this whole "girl name" thing. My son didn't have a name until he was 4 days old, so I'm obviously not good at making these types of decisions! 
So I'm not in that situation again, I'd really like to get close to nailing down a name ahead of time.
Her middle name will be Sofia after DH's grandmother (my FIL will be over the moon when he hears this -- we haven't told him yet), but I'm having a tough time with first names. I've chosen a few, and I know as much as I'd like it to flow with the middle name, in the end, if I like the name enough, does it really matter? How often will she use it? Anyway...please have a look at the poll and tell me what you think before I have another baby with no name!
PS -- I've always wanted the name Alyssa, but DH's ex-wife's name is Melissa. I think it sounds too close. Am I being dumb??
TIA!
ETA: I was also thinking since my son's name is Christopher, something with a "K" sound might be cute, like Kelsey, Kaylee, Kasey, etc. Is that dumb?

Re: Girl name help!!
Alyssa is pretty, and if you love it, go with it...I think they are two totally different names, even if they have similar sounds.
But Lilliana is one of my favorites!!

Re: Girl name help!!
Not gonna lie...I laughed when I saw your Leah Sofia reference.
I voted for Alyssa but I somehow missed Lilliana. I love both of those names and I think they sound really pretty with Sofia.
As for the Alyssa/Melissa thing...I think they are totally different but if it's going to bother you, I would skip it.

Re: Girl name help!!
Since you aren't hypenating the names I don't think it matters so much that it comes off the tongue nicely. I like the name Lilliana.

Re: Girl name help!!
My DD's name IS Liliana, and let me tell you I feel like every other girls name is either hers or a close replica...like lily, lilia, lilian...Im a bit upset I chose the name bc of the popularity of it now
