Rheyden or Malea/Malia

[savina]

which do you all think sounds nicer???

Rheyden Anne Morrison RHEYDEN IS PRONOUNCED RED - DEN OR

or

Malia Anne Morrison

Anne is a must .. my mums middle name..

do you think malia is unusual enough or a bit common as ive got unusual names for my other children so the name has to be unusual or at least a bit uncommom.

other childrens names are
Zaiah Tanesha Kynan AND Taylen, which fits in .///

[smiles4u]

Oh, that's different & i really like it Rheyden but i would have pronounced it Ree-den

I love that you are choosing Anne as i named my DD's middle name after my best friend of 30years Ann, but instead of Ann i used the name Ariane

So very special your DD will be named after her obviously just as extra special Grandmother

P.S - Kynan was my 1st choice as a boy's name when i was pregnant but had a girl, i still LOVE that name so much !!!

[MamaBones]

I like the name Malia!! However, id probably spell is Mahlia...

It reminds me of Jimmy Barnes daughters name, Mahalia.

There is a little girl at daycare called Malena which sounds quite pretty.

[~Kim~]

oooh can't choose. Love the look of Rheyden, but I would have looked at it and pronounced it Rayden IYKWIM? Which i think flows nicely with Anne.
All your other kids names folw really nicley and I personally think Redden pronounciation is a bit stop-start. Sorry yabbering.
Malia is pretty too, and no I don't think too common.
That did't help much did it?

I like Malia the best, it's very pretty TBH to me Rheyden sounds like a boys name.

[LaDolceVita]

I love Malia...

Perhaps something to keep in mind though, a close friend of mine has a little girl named Malia and said to me that she wishes she had've considered the spelling of her name more as she is forever correcting people who call her Ma-lia instead of Mah-lee-ah if that makes sense? Not sure which way you're planning on pronouncing it but she prefers Ma-Leah but people say Mah-Lia as in Somalia the country... Aaah I hope that makes sense lol

Gorgeous name though, sounds adorable with Anne!

Good Luck!!

i like them both but would pick Rheyden (ray den) over Malia (only coz it reminds me of maleria, that disease)

Bon took the words out of my mouth...

I prefer the spelling Malea though.

[CrystalBoo]

I would pronounce it Rayden too, if I saw it, and I don't personally find Redden a nice sounding name.
Malia is nice but I agree that you need to add a 'h' if you want it to be pronounced "mah".

Also, I think I was told by a paramedic that 'melina' (or similar pronunciation) is when a patient vomits their own poo?...

[~Kim~]

nope Maleana is coffee grounds stool - ie old blood in poo

[savina]

wow thanks girls now im confused lol....

i dont know dp nieces middle name is raven is this to close to Rheyden.....

he thinks it is and is a little turned off cause he thinks it may be to similar..

wdyt?

smiles4u- yes i still love kynans name just adore it as its not to weired yet not very popular ... so u would have picked a top name .. and yes im biased...lol

[bon]

I think that they don't sound particularly similar but even if they did, it is her middle name, not her first name, so it's not like it's really going to matter - unless she is known by her middle name instead of her first name.
