not weird, but easy to spell.... HELP!!

ok, we have been trying to find a name for some tme now, but cant find one we both like, ive found ones i like, but he hates so there out... last responce i got on the subject was "ive used up all the names i had"

now he has given me some 'rules'
1. must not be 'wierd' or unusual (aparently ALL the ones i liked fall here)
2. must be easy to spell (MOST IMPORTANT)

apparently Krystal was hard and he still has trouble spelling because i 'changed' the c to a k on him:rolleyes:

so hit me with your Boring:lol: easy to spell girls names!!

My DD is Emma - we liked it because it's classic, and simple, and easy to spell! :)

Other names in my mother's group are Olivia, Ava and Lani (pronounced Larney).

Maybe...
Grace
Anna
Elizabeth
Lara

Sorry - I know there's not much there, but DD is destroying some paperwork at my feet, and need to rescue it! :) Good luck hun!

Samantha
Kaitlyn
Sarah
Kate
Jasmine
Megan
Abbie
Alice
leah

Jessica
Molly
Lisa

Hope some of these help

Jane
Megan
Julia
Stephanie
Shannon
Jennifer
Laura
Alison

I don't actually think any of these are boring!!

I tell you what though, our son is Jack. Plain and simple right??? We are constantly asked how to spell it!!!! So never assume that something will be 'easy to spell'. Personally, my name can be worked about 12 different ways! :doh:

hmmm...I like Grace, Emily and Hannah.....they're nice names, seem to go well with your others as well. and they're simple end easy to spell :)

Easy to spell or only one common spelling?

Kaitlin/katelyn,Caitlin falls into the c/Krystal category, as does

Michaela

Sorry - alternate spelling here - I've seen this as Emmah (I used to have a student spelt like this - I didn't get why the H on the end though.

Yeh, but its not common.
Its not like you'd tell someone your name was Emma and they'd automatically ask how to you spell it, or 'is it with an H'?

My name has 2 really common spellings and I get asked all the time, is it el or ael. And sometimes elle or eal

What was on his list?
Sounds like this is really stressful for you both but you both need to be involved in the process.

Do you need a middle name too?

aaah the partners rule, I remember those lol almost the same rules as you. But he added had to have double letters in there - go figure lol

I like Emma ad Laura, it goes well with your other kiddies name. HTH

Marissa
Lauren
Carmen
Rebecca
Louise
Tamara
Lisa
Leah
Georgina
Amber
Bethany
Grace
Kylie
Jane
Samara
Olivia
Katrina
Hannah
Cindy
Claire
Amelia
Alyssa

melissa, tracey
olivia grace
rebecca vicki
amy melissa...

thats my name and my girls.... basic common.....

My DH has the same rules. And your rule as well :) It makes it nearly impossible to choose a name that he'll like. For this one, we narrowed it down to

Emily
Erin
Isla
Amy
Claire

All fairly common but with one "usual" spelling. I have met people with these names in the past (except Isla but that's a famous person so it fits the same category) and DH has as well but he was finally able to get over it. We had the same problem picking boys names too.

Good luck.

So have you made a decision? I have been watching this thread with interest!

I like (easy ones...)

Emma
Lauren
Veronica
Jade
Penny
Holly
Brooke
Liza
Charlotte
Jessica
Annie
Violet
Rose (looooooooove Rose)
Karen
Cassie
Lydia

I could go on and on hehehehehehehe

ok, we did have a short list we both felt maybe towards, of 4 names!
last night he sugested the one i like most out of them, Alyssa, but then said it sounds to much like melissa (his sister) :duh:
im now not to keen on the other 3 we had:wall:
absolutly hopeless i know!!

Oh we also have to find a middle name once the first is settled:rolleyes: i thought i had that sorted with the female version of his dads middle name, but thats not good enough! (ds1's middle name is my dads middle name)

yeh i have to agree with him (so sorry :hide:) but Alyssa does sound close to Melissa !

What about Elise ? (kind of a different version to Alyssa but not as close to Melissa) :D

I prefer the spelling of Krystal with a ' K ' too.

How about....

Jade / Jada
Molly
Poppy
Mya / Mia
Maya

Catherine?
Caroline?
Emily?
Sarah
Jane
Kate
Elizabeth
