Opinions on names.

I really like a girl name that many people haven’t heard of. I think it is easy to pronounce and is an overall pretty name. The names is [name]Laiken[/name] or ([name]Laken[/name]). I’d like to get some honest opinions on it and see what other people think. Her full name would be [name]Laiken[/name] [name]Lily[/name] (I’m not 100% on the middle name yet)

Also I like the name [name]Sawyer[/name] for a boy. Opinions? ([name]Sawyer[/name] [name]Liam[/name] possibly)

Honestly, I don’t like [name]Laiken[/name]/[name]Laken[/name] at all. I don’t think it’s particularly pretty, elegant, or classy, and it sort of reminds me of some kind of comic book super hero. It sounds a lot like the whole [name]Aiden[/name] blob of names (because the first syllable has a long a and it ends in en) and it strikes me as super trendy and invented. But it’s your child- if you love the name, go ahead and use it.

However, I absolutely love every other name you listed- I think [name]Sawyer[/name] [name]Liam[/name] is fantastic, and I love [name]Lily[/name] in the middle spot. [name]Laken[/name] is the only name you mentioned that I don’t like.

I have heard of this name before. I prefer the [name]Laken[/name] spelling. I’m not too fond of [name]Lily[/name] as a mn though

I can sort of see it’s appeal, but not my style at all. I do love [name]Lily[/name], but this combo would be just OKAY to me. If you went with it, I’d definitely go with the [name]Laken[/name] spelling.
However, I love [name]Sawyer[/name] [name]Liam[/name] for a boy… Would love [name]Liam[/name] [name]Sawyer[/name] even more! :smiley:

I quite like it. But I would go with the [name]Laken[/name] spelling too, only because I would hesitate over [name]Laiken[/name] - is it [name]Lay[/name]-ken, or Ligh-ken…[name]Laken[/name] looks more straightforward to me.

[name]Sawyer[/name] [name]Liam[/name] is a cool name for a boy. I like [name]Liam[/name] [name]Sawyer[/name] more, but if you’re going for sibsets [name]Laken[/name] and [name]Liam[/name] might be a bit much!

To be honest, I don’t like it. It’s very forgettable in my opinion and sounds much like those [name]Cayden[/name]/[name]Braylin[/name]/[name]Aiken[/name]/etc. trendy names. [name]Lily[/name] is gorgeous though.

I love [name]Sawyer[/name] for boy! What about [name]Sawyer[/name] [name]Andrew[/name]? [name]Sawyer[/name] [name]Isaac[/name]? [name]Sawyer[/name] [name]William[/name]? [name]Sawyer[/name] [name]Thomas[/name]? :slight_smile:
