[MUMOF5]

Really like sound of Shaya and Ayla , not so keen on Enita though. xx

 

[suzanne108]

Enita - is it pronounced like Anita? If so I prefer the Anita spelling - less confusing for other people when wondering how to pronounce it. I like it!

I quite like Ayla....wouldn't choose it myself but it sounds pretty. xx

 

[Kitty23]

I like Ayla

do you pronounce it eh-la or eye-la or something else all together lol xxx

 

[Shazzy-babee]

Enita is pronounced the same, its just a bit of a twist, like my name is sharlotte, (special not common as my mum used to say) i really like the idea on havin something normal but it to be so different,

Ayla is pronounced eye-la

I think Ayla is lovely, that's my favourite of the three.

I like your unusual spelling of Enita but she will have a lifetime of spelling it for people and having people send her birthday cards to 'Anita' etc.

I know that because I get everything sent to 'Jodie' or telling people "it's Jody with a y" but I can't say it's that big a problem.

You could even try Anitra, like the name in the opera if you wanted something a little bit different.

shaya

 

[RSbabe]

I like Shaya & Ayla

 

[mrsraggle]

I like Ayla, although I'd spell it Isla. Ayla looks like it should be pronounce A-lar.

 

[suzanne108]

I like Ayla, although I'd spell it Isla. Ayla looks like it should be pronounce A-lar.

I agree with that. IMO unusual spellings do nothing but cause problems for the child! I don't really see the point in spelling things differently when they are pronounced the same?

 

[Tasha]

I love Ayla and Shaya.

 

[mandaa1220]

ayla

 

[Gunner's Mama]

I like Ayla

do you pronounce it eh-la or eye-la or something else all together lol xxx

At least in the states its pronounced eh-la so if you want the sound of eye-la I would stick with Isla. Ayla or Isla I love them both!

 

[coccyx]

Not keen on them. Sorry. Each to their own as they say. At least you and your OH agree on the same names. I do like Isla rather than Ayla

 

[trynitey]

In the US (or atleast my part) would pronounce Ayla is A-luh. I agree with spelling it Isla if that is how it's pronounced. I know someone who's got a baby named Isla.. it's pretty.

I prefer Ayla over the other 2 names.

 

[AimeeM]

I love Ayla and always have. I wanted this from being very young but DH doesn't want it so it is crossed off our list

It is pronounced Eye-la.

I disagree with the spelling Isla as i never knew this was the same as the Ayla that i love. It just looks wierd Isla. Like is should be said, Is-la.

 

[Emmerella]

I hope it don't offend you but they sound very Indian sounding. Maybe thats what you are after though?

 

[muminlove]

Love Ayla but not keen on the other 2, the Ayla I know pronounces it A-luh though.

 

[tasha41]

I like Enita

Not a fan of Shaya.

 

[readyforbaby]

Ayla spelled Isla is my preference
