It took us a long time to decide on [name]Makena[/name], and we love that it has a great positive meaning (filled with happiness) and isn’t too popular. Now we’re expecting another girl and trying to find an equally awesome name. Preferably that doesn’t start with M, K, or P. Thanks!! 
What style of name do you like? Would you like to honor any family members? Any names that you love, but can’t use? ([name]Just[/name] to get an idea of what you like :))

I’d love the idea of picking another feminine sounding surname. I think [name]Leighton[/name] is my personal favorite with [name]Makena[/name].
[name]Makena[/name] & [name]Harper[/name]
[name]Makena[/name] & [name]Collins[/name]
[name]Makena[/name] & [name]Leighton[/name] ([name]Lay[/name]-ton)
[name]Makena[/name] & [name]Campbell[/name]
[name]Makena[/name] & [name]Ellison[/name]
[name]Makena[/name] & [name]Henley[/name]
[name]Makena[/name] & [name]Adair[/name]
Hmm, great questions! I’m not sure what style I like, what is [name]Makena[/name] considered? No family member names to honor. I love the name [name]Abigail[/name] but being a two-mom family we thought it would be cruel to name a child something that means “source of a father’s joy.” 
Most important for me is meaning, I liked [name]Cameron[/name] until I realized it means crooked nose. We’d like a name that isn’t too popular that there will be 3 in the same class, but isn’t too unique that it’s hard to pronounce or spell.
To me, at least, [name]Makena[/name] has a more modern/trendy feel. It’s got a bit of a surname vibe because of [name]Mckenna[/name].

Are you pronouncing [name]Makena[/name] as Mah-KEE-nah or Mah-KEH-nah?
Also, eff yeah two-mom families! 
We pronounce it Mah-keh-nah. 
Thanks for these suggestions, there are a couple that I’m going to think about. I think now I’m leaning towards something other than another A ending, and maybe two syllables. [name]Just[/name] to add more layers to this search!
I’ve always loved the name [name]Kenna[/name], so [name]Makena[/name] is cool too!
