our middle name of choice is [name_f]Anna[/name_f] to honor my Russian ancestry and we expecting to name our daughter [name_f]Hailey[/name_f] if we won’t come up with anything cuter.
I am looking for cool, spunky notes to the name in order to contrast with the middle and last names.
[name_f]Hailey[/name_f] [name_f]Anna[/name_f] /ˈʌnə/ Kah-no is how it would be pronounced.
We were also considering [name_f]Alice[/name_f], [name_u]Holly[/name_u] and [name_u]Madison[/name_u]; but it all is a bit “meh” for me…
I would also use [name_u]Taylor[/name_u], but it feels kinda dated.
thank you all <3

[name_u]Halle[/name_u] and [name_u]Hadley[/name_u] are my favorite [name_u]Haley[/name_u] alternatives, which have been mentioned. Or maybe [name_u]Harper[/name_u]? [name_u]Harper[/name_u] is so popular though. If you’re looking for a more modern unisex name, what about:
[name_f]Greer[/name_f] [name_f]Anna[/name_f]
[name_u]Rowan[/name_u] [name_f]Anna[/name_f]
[name_u]Eden[/name_u] [name_f]Anna[/name_f]
[name_u]Peyton[/name_u] [name_f]Anna[/name_f]
[name_u]Addison[/name_u] [name_f]Anna[/name_f]
[name_f]Jocelyn[/name_f] [name_f]Anna[/name_f] (doesn’t seem very unisex, but technically it is!)
[name_u]Quinn[/name_u] [name_f]Anna[/name_f]
[name_u]Bellamy[/name_u] [name_f]Anna[/name_f]
[name_u]Finley[/name_u] [name_f]Anna[/name_f]
Or a few random other ideas:
[name_u]Willow[/name_u] [name_f]Anna[/name_f]
[name_f]Hazel[/name_f] [name_f]Anna[/name_f]
[name_f]Abigail[/name_f] [name_f]Anna[/name_f]

[name_f]Eilidh[/name_f] [name_f]Anna[/name_f]/Aylee [name_f]Anna[/name_f] ([name_f]Eilidh[/name_f]’s a Scottish form of [name_f]Helen[/name_f] said like AY-[name_u]Lee[/name_u] which I think is super lovely, not sure how usable it is outside of the UK, but I think Aylee [name_f]Anna[/name_f] sounds cute)
[name_f]Claire[/name_f] [name_f]Anna[/name_f]
[name_f]Sadie[/name_f] [name_f]Anna[/name_f]

[name_m]Hi[/name_m] there.
I like [name_f]Hailey[/name_f] a lot. I actually prefer [name_f]Hayley[/name_f], because that was the name of my sweet kitty when I was a kid. I think that [name_u]Holly[/name_u] is sweet too (that was the cat I had when I was a really little kid!), & a bit more timeless. [name_u]Madison[/name_u] & [name_u]Taylor[/name_u] are a bit meh & dated. [name_f]Alice[/name_f] is lovely.

As a [name_u]Haley[/name_u] this caught my attention. Plus my mn begins with an A too.
Some alternatives:
[name_u]Harlow[/name_u]
[name_u]Haven[/name_u]
[name_u]Harper[/name_u]
[name_u]Hunter[/name_u]
[name_f]Kayleigh[/name_f]

[name_u]Vesper[/name_u]
[name_u]Tatum[/name_u]
[name_f]Clara[/name_f]
[name_u]Kendall[/name_u]
The thing about [name_u]Haley[/name_u] is it’s hard to find (good) nicknames.
