    So here are our names....opinions on spelling

    My husband and I have had names we liked picked out for ages... and here are the ones for this bubba....
    If it is a boy his name is will be : William John Neville
    {my DH is John Neville William and his dad is Neville John William - so we kept with tradition }

    If it is a girl, her name will be: Jasmyn Isabelle.....
    I'm unsure how to spell Jasmyn though.... this way seems to be my favourite so far but there are so many different options.
    Jasmin
    Jasmyn
    Jasmyne
    Jasmine
    Jazmyn
    Jazmin
    Jazmine

    What do you think?

    I am prone to making spelling names as easy as possible, so use the most common way to spell them. Only because although I have a common enough name (Kellie), it is spelt a little differently (with the 'ie' rather than 'y') and I am always telling people, that's with and 'ie'. Not really annoying or a big deal or anything, but I wanted to save my kids the hassle! So for your name, I would use Jasmine cause I think that's the more common way to spell it!

    I like how you have spelt it but think the easiest and nicest is Jasmine.

    That makes sense,
    My name is Kirsty-Lea and i often get not only Kristy but also Lee..... and many other variations are out there of spelling also.
    but then my mum is Leanne and so the Lea is from her and I like it.

    However I do like unusual names - and I wanted to call our daughter Yasmin however my husband doesn't like it and i didn't like jasmyn because it's fairly common, so i said well i am choosing how to spell it {and hoping to make it less common lol}

    I prefer the look of Jasmine to any of the others, although Jasmyn would be my second choice.

    I like Jasmine (because it's spelled the same as the beauuuutiful smelling flower) and Jasmin. xo
