    If you like Malachi, what about Makkai / Makai / Mackai / Makye?

    One thing you ought to consider is whether the sounds in the name are popular. Even if the name itself isn't common, if it has sounds that are 'in' right now, it will blend in. Those would be -ade/-aid, -aden, anything ending in -an/-en/-in/-on, and a lot of names ending in -er.

    That being said, here are some more suggestions:

    Abram, Alaric, Bennett, Blake, Carsten, Caspian, Cyprian, Declan, Emeric, Esmond, Felix, Finlay, Gareth, Henrik, Jared, Lemuel, Levi, Magnus, Marius, Nolan, Orsino, Stellan

    Just thought of a few others

    Dusk (sister is Chilli)
    Djago - pronounced - Jaygo (sister is Zaelee)
    Drake
    Jye
    Kye
    Kyron
    Blayne
    Zane
    Zebb
    Orlando/Orry
    Rory

    Just thought I'd chuck in the girls names coz I love them & Zaelee is close to one you were thinking of.

    I do love Mehkelti as a girl's name! And I also still really love Maruschke, even though it isn't popular or common. Hmm I wonder if Mischke would work as a girl's name?

    Still like Malachi for a boy, but it is not 100% right...

    I just realised these are all M names, haha!

    M names are great!!! (totally unbiased opinion of course! )

    I remember when pregnant with DS I had Aricyn for a boy - Anakie Grace for a girl
    when pregnant with DD - Mehkelti for a girl - Macarien for a boy..

    I seem to get one letter in my head for both sexes!!!

    Hi all,
    Our daughters name is Aliyah pronounced A-leah.Her middle name is Christine like the car.It sounds pretty together.We got it from the US R&B singer who died in a plane crash some years back although she spelt hers with a double A.
    Its Arabic and it means highly exalted
    I like Silas and Zane as Boys names

    I always LOVED the name Avalon and I was so sure I would have an Avalon Rose for my daughter. But then everyone who I said it to said it reminded them of the airport . And DH said it reminds him of the Toyota. I still love it though!
