I think we agree on one!

[Lisa]

If you love it, let your cousin & her mum know that you've always loved it and hope to be able to use it too.
I think the distance in the family (2nd or 3rd cousin) would make it okay to use it.

what about Kaylla? middle name Jade?

[~clover~]

Lol, as good as it sounds, her name is Kayla-Jayd. Little bit too close, lol!
I don't mind Kaela.

[Mrs Jak]

I think they would be flattered

What about with a 'h' on the end?

Kaylah
Kailah
Kaelah

[Tinks]

It's a beautiful name.

I quite like Kaila.

[~clover~]

Thanks guys
I just pm'ed them. Told them I like it, but would spell it different. We'll see!

Another question. Does it go with our other names?
Jazmyne, Brianna, Jesse & Kaela (however we spell it)
Does that sound right to you?

[Mrs Jak]

I think it suits perfectly

Thankyou

I think Kayla goes really well with your children's names. I would be tempted to spell it Kayla, as there is no ambiguity about the pronunciation of the name.
Kaela looks interesting, but I think it is a little ambiguous, some people might be inclined to pronounce it as Kay - el -a. Also Kaila looks good too, but again, may be pronounced ky-la.
Anyway, that's just my 2 cents worth. It is great that you both agree on a name!

Possible middle names:

Kayla Mae
Kayla Skye
Kayla Eve
Kayla Susannah
Kayla Josephine
I am liking a one or three syllable middle name with Kayla.


Also, have you considered Clover? It is a beautiful name. There is an adorable little girl called Clover at our pre-school. I have only ever heard of 2 or 3.

Good luck!

Thanks
I was thinking May for a middle name, its my mum & grandma's middle names. Jill is a possibility. I'm not a fan of the name, but it was my dad's mum's name & even though he didn't use it for any of us for the same reason (it really is a horrible name) I will think about it. I know pop would be very honoured.
Skye is my name, & I'm not keen on using it

My other kids first 2 names have 4 syllables all up (Jazmyne Louise, Brianna Rose & Jesse Andrew) & I wouldn't mind this one being the same, but not worried...

I thought Clover a couple of times, but I know DH very well, & he wouldn't go for it.

Would love a nice flower name though. To go with my other girls. But no idea. We could end up with anything, lol.

... i was about to come in and say the exact same thing, Kaela at first glance i thought you had a totally different name and i was somewhat confused until i realised you meant it the same pronounciation as Kayla.
Kaila does look great but i think yeh again some might pronounce it wrong as Ash mentioned too.

Why not spell it Kayla ... i can't see how that would be a problem when they are 2nd/3rd cousins, if anything how would their Mum's not be chuffed and see it as a great compliment

I love the suggestion of Kayla Eve, sounds so pretty !!

I feel the middle name would be better suited with a name ending in 'e'

I can only think of Kayla Ariane & Kayla Trelise for now but i think a shorter middle name would look better, say less than 5 letters.

Kayla May does sound lovely but are you sure about the look of it, that some might think you are looking to match the ' ay ' in both names, not that should really matter especially if you would really love to use May
