Help???

[MumsieMel]

Hi Girls,

well we've agreed on 2 girls names, which we will decide on at birth, but my problem is that i would love to give my DD (if its a girl:p ) my Grandmother's name Gladys as a middle name, but it just doesnt sit well!

Any ideas? On variations?
Also i cant use her middle name as my DD middle name since it was her mother's maiden name IYKWIM?

Please Help!!!

[Fairyfloss]

what are the names you are considering?

[Femme-Fetale]

Yes, what other names are u considering?? It would be easier to give variations of Gladys that way.
Altho, i dont know if this will help, but as soon as i read "gladys" i accidentaly read it is "Glenys" so maybe thats something to ponder on?

Good luck, naming can be such fun!!! :wave:

ooops :o

Aliyah
Chastity

Thanks :)

I think Aliyah is a really pretty name :-)

I don't know if this is any help but apparently Gladys is a Welsh form of Claudia.

What about Gladiola as a variation of gladys?

How are you going to pronounce Aliyah?
I know what you mean with Gladys, we gave Charlotte rose my GG's first name which is Esme & a lot of people still get a funny expression on their faces but we love it for our reasons & the memories I will share with her of her great great grandma she will feel nothing but proud & special :)

This is good.

Love the name Claudia.

i know but Aliyah Cluadia, sounds funny, too many "a"'s IYKWIM

[Betsabe]

Aliyah Claudine or Claudette would work better. One less a to worry about.

[MumsieMel]

[Betsabe]

[Hokey Pokey]

Aliyah Claudelle sounds good!

[MumsieMel]
