As a teacher I recommend you stick with the regular spelling or be prepared for a lifetime of misspelling and mispronunciation! (and the ensuing frustration) Also these different spellings are cute when they are little - but will they look good on a business card or name tag as an adult - or just strange? One of my friends changed to the reg spelling by deed poll another changed her name altogether so she would be taken seriously at work (VERY unusual name)

At school we cringe at getting the new lists of names - usually the strange names are the naughty ones (our Jaxon is one of the worst!)

Love the original spelling of these names though - esp Ava - gorgeous!

Good luck - in the end you and your partner are the ones who have to like the name!
