So our third daughter is due in 2 weeks, and we had decided on [name_f]Mira[/name_f] [name_f]Lark[/name_f].
BUT, then someone on a different forum mentioned miralax and now I’m conflicted!! And it also means “look” in Spanish apparently and I just heard there a [name_f]Meera[/name_f] on the show Game of Thrones, which I don’t watch, but I feel like the odds are piling against me and I am PANICKING since I’m so close to due date!!
What are your thoughts?!?
Other middle name options are [name_f]Mira[/name_f] [name_u]Jay[/name_u], or [name_f]Mira[/name_f] [name_u]Eden[/name_u].
Or if there’s a name that’s artsy and earthy that goes with [name_f]Elowen[/name_f] and indie that come to mind, let me know! I’m literally desperate!
Thanks ”
[name_f]Mira[/name_f] [name_f]Lark[/name_f] is so pretty! Your daughters have beautiful names
I don’t think people will think of miralax? And that it’s means “look” in Spanish doesn’t really matter if you’re not living in a Spanish speaking country? At least it doesn’t mean anything negative
As for the game of thrones character, [name_f]Meera[/name_f] is a minor character, I don’t think that’s something people would associate the name [name_f]Mira[/name_f] with the character at all
( [name_m]Just[/name_m] throwing in [name_f]Mira[/name_f] Larkspur)
I think the miralax thing is a non issue. Have you considered [name_f]Mina[/name_f]? Pronounced mee-nuh
If you have a look around, but nothing compares to [name_f]Mira[/name_f], you’ll have your answer 
I love [name_f]Mira[/name_f]! What about [name_f]Mira[/name_f] [name_u]Wren[/name_u] if you’re second guessing [name_f]Mira[/name_f] [name_f]Lark[/name_f]?
Not to add to confusion, but just in case, I can also see [name_f]Elowen[/name_f] and [name_f]Indie[/name_f]'s sister as:
[name_f]Brynn[/name_f]
[name_f]Calla[/name_f]
[name_f]Freya[/name_f]
[name_f]Greta[/name_f]
[name_f]Lyra[/name_f]
[name_f]Mayra[/name_f]
[name_f]Poppy[/name_f]
[name_f]Primrose[/name_f]
[name_f]Stella[/name_f]
[name_f]Tallulah[/name_f]
[name_f]Veda[/name_f]
[name_f]Mira[/name_f] [name_f]Lark[/name_f] is gorgeous, don’t second guess it
[name_f]Mira[/name_f] [name_f]Lark[/name_f] is lovely, I don’t think anyone will mention or compare it to miralax.
[name_f]Mira[/name_f] [name_f]Lark[/name_f] is wonderful!
[name_f]Mira[/name_f] [name_f]Lark[/name_f] is absolutely stunning, and I also like [name_f]Mira[/name_f] [name_u]Eden[/name_u]! I definitely didn’t make the TV association, and the miralax one seems to be quite a stretch!
Oh no! The Game or Thrones thing would worry me as well. It is a lovely name though. Would you feel better if you did a full name w/the nn of [name_f]Mira[/name_f]? [name_m]How[/name_m] about…
[name_f]Miriam[/name_f]
[name_f]Miranda[/name_f]
[name_f]Mirabella[/name_f]
[name_f]Mirabel[/name_f]
Miriella
What do you think of Meriwen? Is it too close to [name_f]Elowen[/name_f]?
A few more you may like…
[name_f]Ceridwen[/name_f]
[name_f]Freya[/name_f]
[name_f]Lyra[/name_f]
[name_f]Mara[/name_f] or the Gaelic spelling [name_f]Maire[/name_f]?
Myfawnwy…kind of fancy, but seems to work w/[name_f]Elowen[/name_f] & [name_f]Indie[/name_f]. Certainly unique.
[name_f]Shira[/name_f]?
[name_f]Zella[/name_f]
[name_f]Hope[/name_f] this helps.
[name_f]Mira[/name_f] does mean look in Spanish, but it’s beautiful and totally usable. If you think about it, lots of names mean things in other languages. [name_f]Ella[/name_f] means “she” in Spanish for example; [name_f]Elle[/name_f] is “she” in [name_m]French[/name_m]. [name_m]Kip[/name_m] (which I really like) is chicken in Dutch.
[name_f]Mira[/name_f] [name_f]Lark[/name_f] is a magical combo. I would never have gotten to Miralax! It’s a stretch.
Some random thoughts:
Miralax is something I’m familiar w/, although I’m not sure that that would have come to mind hearing the name [name_f]Mira[/name_f] [name_f]Lark[/name_f].
[name_f]Alouette[/name_f] is [name_m]French[/name_m] for lark, but that may be too fancy as a substitute.
[name_f]Lark[/name_f] to me implies youthful, spritely, joyous, so if that’s what you like about [name_f]Lark[/name_f], would either [name_f]Blythe[/name_f] or [name_f]Joy[/name_f] work as a substitute?
Or if it’s the L-sound that you like, maybe [name_f]Lara[/name_f], [name_f]Luna[/name_f], [name_f]Lyra[/name_f], or [name_f]Lorelei[/name_f]? [name_f]Luna[/name_f] & [name_f]Lyra[/name_f] are also nature related like [name_f]Lark[/name_f].
If you want to use [name_f]Mira[/name_f] as a nickname, [name_f]Mireille[/name_f] (Meer-EYE) is a pretty longer name.
Other M-names that [name_f]IMO[/name_f] work well w/[name_f]Elowen[/name_f] & [name_f]Indie[/name_f]:
[name_f]Maia[/name_f] ([name_f]May[/name_f]-ah)
[name_f]Malia[/name_f] (Mah-[name_u]LEE[/name_u]-ah)
[name_f]Melina[/name_f]/[name_f]Malina[/name_f]
[name_f]Marin[/name_f]/Maryn
[name_f]Marisol[/name_f]
[name_f]Manon[/name_f]/Minon
Good luck!
You guys are so helpful and reassuring ” thank you!!! I’m feeling better about it and I know the majority of my name anxiety is just stemming from waiting for her to arrive! ”
So thank you all for your comments! I love them all!
That is so true about [name_f]Elle[/name_f] and such. thank you!
[name_f]Mira[/name_f] [name_f]Lark[/name_f] is really pretty! I would have a hard time letting that one go.
Go with it! It’s wonderful.
Also, have to say good job on picking [name_f]Mira[/name_f]. I have a soft spot for that name, because it’s my kitty’s.
I’ve been loving your combination of [name_f]Mira[/name_f] [name_f]Lark[/name_f] since you first suggested it here. It’s normal to be anxious and second-guessing this late in the game, but I definitely think you’ve already found your winner.
[name_f]Mira[/name_f] [name_f]Lark[/name_f] is adorable! I honestly didn’t think of miralax at all, and would suggest you keep it as it is, but if it’s been destroyed for you, maybe something like [name_f]Mira[/name_f] [name_f]Sparrow[/name_f] would appeal? Or even an elongation of [name_f]Mira[/name_f], nn [name_f]Mira[/name_f]? Like [name_f]Mirielle[/name_f] [name_f]Lark[/name_f], [name_f]Mireille[/name_f] [name_f]Lark[/name_f] (mee-[name_u]RAY[/name_u]), [name_f]Mirella[/name_f] [name_f]Lark[/name_f], [name_f]Mireya[/name_f] [name_f]Lark[/name_f], [name_f]Miriam[/name_f] [name_f]Lark[/name_f], or [name_f]Mirabelle[/name_f] [name_f]Lark[/name_f]?
A few more ideas for [name_f]Mira[/name_f]:
[name_f]Mira[/name_f] [name_f]Poppy[/name_f]
[name_f]Mira[/name_f] [name_f]Willow[/name_f]
[name_f]Mira[/name_f] [name_f]Jonquil[/name_f]
[name_f]Mira[/name_f] [name_u]Aspen[/name_u]
[name_f]Mira[/name_f] [name_u]Arden[/name_u]
[name_f]Mira[/name_f] [name_u]Felice[/name_u]
I also [name_u]LOVE[/name_u] the idea of [name_f]Mira[/name_f] Larkspur! 
I wouldn’t worry too much about the GoT character; I’m not into the show, either, but this is the first time I’m hearing of a [name_f]Meera[/name_f] so I wonder how big of a character she really is? Plus, this is the last season of GoT, so I imagine that, like LOST a few years ago, it, too, will die down.
Good luck!
P.S. I love your [name_m]Lewis[/name_m] quote!
