[name]Ceris[/name]/[name]Cerys[/name]: I think it’s such a pretty name, but I’ve always loved the [name]Carys[/name] spelling.
[name]Maren[/name]: I think it’s a great name, and the Marens I’ve known have been sweet.
[name]Miren[/name] (mirr-en): I like [name]Maren[/name] more because [name]Mirin[/name] reminds me of the actress [name]Helen[/name] Mirrin. ([name]Do[/name] you like [name]Miranda[/name]? I can see [name]Miranda[/name] and [name]Layla[/name] as sisters…)
[name]Silvia[/name] (or [name]Silvie[/name]?): I’m used to the [name]Sylvia[/name] spelling, but I think that [name]Silvia[/name] is really pretty.
[name]Anna[/name]: I think it’s beautiful, but it seems a lot less exotic to me than [name]Layla[/name]. [name]Do[/name] you like [name]Annora[/name]?
[name]Maris[/name]: I really like [name]Maris[/name] a lot. [name]Marisol[/name], too.
[name]Perry[/name]: [name]Perry[/name] is a boys’ name to me, especially with this spelling.
[name]Perrin[/name] (with nn [name]Peri[/name]): [name]Perrin[/name] is a boys’ name to me, too, and even though [name]Peri[/name] looks more feminine to me, I can see some of the other names more with [name]Layla[/name].
[name]Maeva[/name] (with nn [name]Mae[/name]): I love [name]Maeve[/name] more…
[name]Ophelia[/name] (with nn [name]Fee[/name]): I think it’s beautiful, but because I have a habit of adding prefixes (specifically “ped” and “hem”) to [name]Ophelia[/name], I like some of your other names more.
[name]Anouk[/name]: I want to like this name so badly, but at the moment, [name]Anouk[/name] makes me think of “a nuke,” as in a nuclear weapon.
[name]Rosemary[/name] (with nn [name]Ro[/name] or [name]Romy[/name]): I love it!
[name]Ramona[/name]: I think it’s adorable and spunky…
Aven: Aven sounds and looks incomplete to me, like [name]Haven[/name] with the H chopped off.
With [name]Layla[/name], my favorites on your list are [name]Cerys[/name] ([name]Carys[/name]?), [name]Maren[/name], [name]Rosemary[/name] ([name]Rosemary[/name] feels really different in style to me from [name]Layla[/name], but I love [name]Romy[/name] with [name]Layla[/name]), and [name]Ramona[/name] ([name]Will[/name] you call her [name]Romy[/name]?).
[name]Do[/name] some of the names sound better with your last names than others?
Great list!
Good luck!
