Name Spelling Poll

Twin A is going to be Michael Richard, but I can't decide how to spell Twin B's name.
Lilly Kate or Lily Kate? Kates the middle name.

Re: Name Spelling Poll

to me, Lily would be pronounced LI-ly (with a long I).... in order for it to sound like the name of the flower, I think it should have 2 l's.....

But isn't the flower Lily spelled with one L? My sisters name is Lily so tha is the way that seems "right" to me.

The "correct" spelling (flower) is one L. I would keep it one, personally.

Re: Name Spelling Poll

My grandmother's name was Lillian. She was called "Lilly". Two "L"s in Lillian would give a nickname of Lilly. I would think "Lily" would be the spelling of the flower.

Despite numerous arguments with DH, her name on her Birth Cert will be Lillian after his grandmother.

In this case, I'd do Lilly then...but you really can't go wrong either way. I'd still pronounce them the same.
