JEnni I love the way you spelt Jorja! It does suit her!

Like names ending in ea - is that an "eee" sound or an "ear" sound: Bailea I figure is probably the eee sound but Lea would be - which one actually, Lee or Lear?

When i made the change is Bailea s name, besides being for numerilogical reasons, it was also because i thought it looked more feminine, and i thought that most boys had the spelling Bailey.
Her name has the ee sound, but i get people asking of its Bai leah. as they see lea as being leah.

I didn't want DS to have to spell his name so all the names we picked were fairly straightforward (as well as having other meanings for us)- I thought Peter would be an easy one for him, and it probably will be- for him, but not for me. I can't tell you how many times this past year people I have said his name over the phone and the paperwork comes back saying "Peta"!!

I have a friend who works at a dental surgery and she and the other staff keep a book of unusual names. The winner last year was Kerosene (pronounced Kirossony)
