Both my husband and I love the name Bay for a girl but we would prefer it to be a nickname rather than her full name. Neither of us are keen on Bailey, any suggestions for a full name? Don’t mind if they aren’t what would automatically come to mind.

[name_f]Baya[/name_f] or [name_f]Bayla[/name_f]?
[name_f]Bethany[/name_f] has all those letters, in that order.

[name_u]Baylor[/name_u] was my first thought!!
We call our baby bebe all the time haha so I think any baby could become a [name_u]Bay[/name_u] naturally. [name_f]Belle[/name_f] or any -belle name would be pretty good.
[name_f]Mable[/name_f] or [name_f]Maybelline[/name_f] comes to mind.

I love the Latina pronunciation of [name_f]Belle[/name_f] - Bay-a, and [name_u]Bay[/name_u] could be a nn of that.

I saw Baina somewhere a long time ago and thought it was really pretty. That could shorten to [name_u]Bay[/name_u]. I wonder if you could even use Bayna.
[name_f]Briony[/name_f] is the only one I can think of off the top of my head, but I’m seconding [name_u]Baylor[/name_u], [name_f]Beatrice[/name_f] or [name_f]Beatrix[/name_f], [name_f]Bernadette[/name_f], [name_f]Briseis[/name_f], and [name_u]Bellamy[/name_u]!
[name_f]My[/name_f] Aunt Bay’s legal name is [name_m]Delano[/name_m] [name_f]Rose[/name_f] (although it’s pronounced like Delaina). Why do they call her [name_u]Bay[/name_u]? I have no idea! But she was named for Roosevelt…
By first thought for one that makes sense is [name_f]Beatrice[/name_f] or [name_f]Elisabeth[/name_f].
I feel like any B name would work! [name_f]Bianca[/name_f] is one that hasn’t been mentioned yet; also [name_f]Bridget[/name_f], [name_f]Brianna[/name_f], [name_f]Brittany[/name_f] … or what about a name that ends with a b sounds, like [name_f]Phoebe[/name_f] or [name_u]Ruby[/name_u]?
