What do you think?

Ever since we've been thinking about trying for a family we've been set on our names. Hubby LOVES the name Analis for a girl, so it'll be Analis Mae and for a boy we love Robert James. My cousin was called James and he died a few months ago so it's sort of to honour him. What do you think?

 

[BeccaMichelle]

How do you pronounce Analis? Because just looking at it.. the poor thing would be teased her whole life...

 

[escholes]

Oh no! Thats what I thought too! I didnt wanna mention it incase it was just my mind! Hubby loves it said as its spelt A-NA-LIS.

How about the more traditional spelling Annalise?? I think its a very pretty name, but can see that some people may mis-pronounce it. xx

 

[BeccaMichelle]

yeah... kids can be mean... I don't see Analis going down well..

 

[escholes]

Neither of us likes Annaliese, think it sounds like a name off coronation street.

 

[BeccaMichelle]

Is Anaïs (ah-nah-iss) close.. or am I way off?

I don't think I'm sounding out your choice correctly yet... A-na-lis... like the beginning of the word analyst?

Analis would be a total no for me because of the spelling I pronounce it ah-NAH-liss which is fine, but once people see it written...Sorry. I can see people adding an adjective to the end of it if you see what I mean

Robert James would be a nice tribute to your cousin though for a boy

 

[Emma.Gi]

I'm not too keen on Analis sorry, I love Robert though

 

[RubyRainbows]

The name sounds pretty... but the spelling would have to be changed a bit bc i think kids would be mean and come up with lots of ways to tease a name that starts with "anal"! I used to know a girl name Annaleisa, which is very pretty!

The boy's name is a nice tribute to your cousin!

 

[mummysangels]

nice name, but yes thinkt the spelling could cause some trouble
how about annelise?

 

[readyforbaby]

Definitely change the spelling, otherwise, very pretty name. I am not a big fan of Robert though, but it might make a nice middle name. I prefer James Robert. Good luck!
