HI Girls,

I like these names, what do you think?

Clarissa or Lila (pronounced Leela, not Layla)

I also like Lilibet.

What do you think?

THANK YOU

I love [name_f]Clarissa[/name_f]! [name_f]Lovely[/name_f], uncommon but recognisable, spunky.
[name_f]My[/name_f] second favourite is [name_f]Lila[/name_f], though I intuitively pronounce it L-i-la (as in “mind”).
[name_f]Lilibet[/name_f] is cute too, bit doesn’t have that spark to me.

I like [name_f]Lila[/name_f] & [name_f]Lilibet[/name_f], but I’m not crazy about [name_f]Clarissa[/name_f]. I think most people (in the US at least) would assume [name_f]Lila[/name_f] is lie-la, not lee-la, but it’s an easy fix.

[name_f]Clarissa[/name_f] is elegant and lovely

[name_f]Clarissa[/name_f] is gorgeous! An underused gem.

I think [name_f]Clarissa[/name_f] is the most wearable option, though [name_f]Lilibet[/name_f] is definitely the way to go if you want something spunky and unusual. If LEE-la is the pronunciation you want, I would shy away from [name_f]Lila[/name_f], as it will most likely be pronounced LYE-la.
