I think we agree on one!

Ok, so we both like Kayla

Problem is, I have a 2nd or 3rd cousin called Kayla. We are friends on FB, she's only about 14 & I do see them, but only every few years. Last names would be different. Do you think thats ok?

I'm thinking a different spelling, but I really like it that way.
Kaila? Kayla? Kaela? What do you think?

Suggestions for middle names?

I have no idea if I feel comfortable using the name. I'm thinking of pm'ing her & asking her & her mum what they think. Her mum & I get along really well. Our younger kids are similar ages & we always talk when we see each other, its just not often. I see her father more, but she's not with them very often.

I have no idea! I've loved the name since the day she was born & I first heard it!

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.

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?

[Pandora]

Kaylah?

The other variation I thought of is Kayleigh or Kaylee?

[sconeonamission]

Kayla Lilly ?

[~clover~]

I've already suggested Kaylee, Kyla & Keely. DH doesn't like any of them.
I'm just waiting for him to bring it up again before I suggest middle names.
Thinking Nicole is nice. Its my middle name. But I've never really been into using our names for the kids.
I'll see what his thoughts are anyway.

I like Kayla, for May as the middle name you could always change the spelling to Mae, that way it doesn't look so ay, ay ish.

I think Kayla Mae has really nice sound to it.

Good luck and I hope your cousin was OK with you using it, I personally would take it as a honour if someone named their child after mine.
