Help with spelling.

Hey well we have picked the name for our little girl.... Leilah Jayde..... I'm just wondering if i'm 100% on the spelling... what do you all think?? I really dont like the look of Layla.... long story but both hubby and i dont really like it spelt that way... and well yeah just wondering if there is any other way i could spell it??? or what you all think?

You could spell it Leila

[misskittyfantastico]

I must say I think I do prefer it spelled Layla but otherwise Leila....I see Leila though and think LEE-la
Just my opinion though and it is a Beautiful name that you've chosen regardless of how you spell it:)

What about Laela oh Laelah? I also see LEEla when its spelt Leilah.

[mrsbutterflygirl]

ooo I dont mind Laelah.... that is something different... and looks not too bad either.... hmmmmmmmmm

[jessi]

i think its a wonderful name! spell it however you want :D

I like it spelt Laelah best. But whatever you choose its a beautiful name. I agree with the others, with the spelling Leilah i think of Lee at the start.

I like Jade spelt like this. But Jayde is nice too.

Overall, Laelah Jayde is a gorgeous name and one that i would definately have on my fave girls names list! :D

Hey, thanks for the comments... I prefer Jayde spelt Jade too but it's a name from my husband's family and he really wants it spelt Jayde so i was like hey what is one extra letter.... I am starting to agree with everyone on the spelling of Laelah... I think i will need to work on my hubby now :D ;)

i quite like Leila Jayde. i've never seen Laelah before, i personally don't like that way of spelling it.

[Blessed Mum]

What a gorgeous name. I think either Laelah Jayde or Laylah Jayde. Good Luck.

Yep I think Laelah is the best way, it is said as it's spelt that way people will always get it right :thumbsup:

I added the extra L in my DD's name so people would not call her Lila(lie-la) the extra L makes people say(Lil-la)well most of the time.

Good luck with it :D

What about Laela oh Laelah? I also see LEEla when its spelt Leilah.
same with me

Personally I like Leila Jade, I see all those other spellings and I see chaos for the child ahead. As someone with an unusual name and having to spell it constantly, I'm all for names that are spelt in the most obvious way (although what is most obvious is still a matter of opinon and personal preference). I also like Layla, but understand that you and DH don't want to spell it that way. Its a beautiful name no matter how you spell it

I very much like unusual spellings of names, as you can see from my DD, Tyllee is actually pronouced (tilly) not (tie ley). Oh well. I just correct everyone and I know that she will do the same when she is older. Its good to be different!
Go with what you would like to do. I do LOVE your spelling, my friends little girl is LAYLA, and she is just beautiful, it is a gorgeous name!
