Thanks, everyone! I’d stumbled upon the latter three over the weekend and had been really crushing on them, but [name_f]Ayla[/name_f] [name_f]Charlotte[/name_f]'s had my heart for a while and I think your comments just made that impression all the stronger. I do still really like [name_f]Ayla[/name_f] [name_f]Rosamund[/name_f] and [name_f]Ayla[/name_f] [name_f]Felicity[/name_f], but I think [name_f]Ayla[/name_f] [name_f]Charlotte[/name_f] is probably the one for me. (Now if only I could find a family name to pair with it! Although I love that [name_f]Ayla[/name_f]'s a tree name, sort of like my name, so I’m sort of considering [name_f]Ayla[/name_f] as a honor name for me and just going with sweet, simple [name_f]Ayla[/name_f] [name_f]Charlotte[/name_f] [name_f]Elise[/name_f]?)
And re: [name_f]Ayla[/name_f] [name_f]Jasmine[/name_f]… lol! (@daffodils and sunflowers - if you’d never mentioned it, none of the others would’ve ever known! hahaha!) I’m currently making my way through a set of themed signatures using the names from each state’s SSA data, making combos from the names that rank in each state but not nationally within the top 100 respectively (if that makes any sense at all lol). One of the first states I did, [name_f]Alaska[/name_f], had both [name_f]Ayla[/name_f] and [name_f]Jasmine[/name_f] and [name_f]Ayla[/name_f] [name_f]Jasmine[/name_f] was one of the combos in my [name_f]Alaska[/name_f] signature. I hadn’t really expected to fall in love with it, but I loved [name_f]Ayla[/name_f] [name_f]Jasmine[/name_f] so much that it prompted me to actually consider adding [name_f]Ayla[/name_f] to my own list! For a while, [name_f]Ayla[/name_f] [name_f]Jasmine[/name_f] was BY FAR my favorite, but as time went on, I fell in love with [name_f]Ayla[/name_f] [name_f]Charlotte[/name_f] LEAGUES above [name_f]Ayla[/name_f] [name_f]Jasmine[/name_f], and while she’s so pretty, I don’t think she’s the one for me anymore. @daffodils and sunflowers only knew about it, I guess, because she’s one of my girls I talk to a lot on the WOW thread on the [name_u]Baby[/name_u] Names forum–and she knew how much I’ve loved [name_f]Ayla[/name_f] [name_f]Jasmine[/name_f] in the past. Thanks for all the love for it, though!
@violet1296 - I wasn’t specifically looking for combos–although I’m so happy you took the time to suggest them!–and I find myself strangely enamored of [name_f]Ayla[/name_f] [name_f]Ingrid[/name_f]. I’m always after a good Nordic name to honor my Nordic ancestry! I don’t know that I like [name_f]Ayla[/name_f] [name_f]Ingrid[/name_f] more than [name_f]Ayla[/name_f] [name_f]Charlotte[/name_f], but I do like her a lot, and promise to give her consideration!
@lovemysweeties - thanks, [name_u]Jean[/name_u]! I really like [name_f]Ayla[/name_f] [name_f]Charlotte[/name_f] [name_f]Snow[/name_f], actually, but feel weird about it, as my car is named [name_f]Snow[/name_f]. (Technically Snowflake [name_f]Amelia[/name_f], but I call her [name_f]Snow[/name_f], haha.) Plus, I have [name_f]Ella[/name_f] [name_f]Katherine[/name_f] [name_f]Snow[/name_f] “[name_f]Ella[/name_f] [name_f]Kate[/name_f]/[name_f]Ella[/name_f] [name_f]Snow[/name_f]” on my list already–so I suppose it’s weird I like [name_f]Snow[/name_f] there but not with [name_f]Ayla[/name_f], but for some reason the feeling of “but that’s my car” seems stronger with [name_f]Ayla[/name_f] than [name_f]Ella[/name_f]? [name_m]Don[/name_m]'t ask me why, because I couldn’t tell you! hahaha!
