All three name are really sweet and cute. In your other post you said you were looking for something a little uncommon which would eliminate [name_f]Ella[/name_f] [name_f]Grace[/name_f]. [name_f]Ella[/name_f] [name_f]Grace[/name_f] is a beautiful name, and if you love it, use it however it is quite common.

[name_f]Alaya[/name_f] is very sweet and a little different but not strange, nor does it sound like you are trying to hard. I think it is a great name.

I guess I have a soft spot for [name_u]Allie[/name_u] because this is what I voted for. I do think that I would use [name_u]Allison[/name_u] and shorten it to [name_u]Allie[/name_u] just for grown up professional reasons.

Nice choices!

I voted for [name_u]Allie[/name_u] it just seems perfect for sweet and cute but will grow with her as well. I’ve never been an [name_f]Ella[/name_f] fan but maybe because I know at least 20 of them. And [name_f]Alaya[/name_f] is also a nice choice.

I adore [name_f]Ella[/name_f] [name_f]Grace[/name_f]. Beautiful combo. My second choice would be [name_u]Allie[/name_u].

[name_f]Ella[/name_f] [name_f]Grace[/name_f] is darling, though prob not unique. I like [name_f]Alaya[/name_f] because it’s a little different and there won’t be 8 of them in her school. [name_u]Allie[/name_u] could be a nickname for [name_f]Alaya[/name_f], so I would eliminate that one. I’m torn between the other two because I actually like [name_f]Ella[/name_f] [name_f]Grace[/name_f] more, just know so many [name_f]Ella[/name_f]'s. In the end I went with [name_f]Alaya[/name_f] which is sweet, airy, and light.

A few others you may like… [name_f]Elara[/name_f], [name_f]Elora[/name_f], [name_u]Elia[/name_u], [name_f]Amara[/name_f], [name_f]Amaya[/name_f], [name_f]Etta[/name_f], [name_f]Etta[/name_f] [name_f]Grace[/name_f]… Good luck!

Oh and [name_f]Aletta[/name_f]!

[name_f]Ella[/name_f] [name_f]Grace[/name_f] is cute and sweet, even if it is common. If you don’t know any other Ellas personally, then I think it’s ok to use. [name_u]Allie[/name_u] and [name_f]Alaya[/name_f] don’t have the same sweetness for me.

I love [name_f]Alaya[/name_f]

Thanks so much for your thoughts! You make a lot of sense, and I appreciate your thought that [name_f]Alaya[/name_f] isn’t trying too hard, because that was one of our concerns. Maybe we should replace the [name_f]Ella[/name_f] [name_f]Grace[/name_f] option with [name_u]Allie[/name_u] [name_f]Grace[/name_f] to make it a little bit less common…
Thanks again!
