    What do you think of this name?

    What do you think of the name Azalea for a girl? Not sure if I want to use it, but it is stuck in my head at the moment.

    I like the name Zaylee and thought this might be a cute, longer option. I wouldn't use the name Zaylee though as I like long names that you can shorten. Then again, it would depend on how most people pronounce it... Ah-zay-le-ah or Ah-zayle-ya. I obviously pronounce it the first way.

    I'm not sure how it would go with my other kids names though, especially considering my DD2 is Anelise... are Azalea & Anelise too similar sounding?

    So, give me your honest opinion.

    I was pronouncing Ah- Zah-lia, maybe I was reading it wrong though. I thinks its lovely with your DDs name.

    Thanks for your honest replies everyone. I really don't want to use a name starts with the same letter that my other children have, so J, M, N, H & A are all out.
    I might one day grow some Azaleas as the name is really stuck in my mind right now.
