Would love to help but no poll attached x

[name_f]Athena[/name_f] is a beautiful classic. It is the only name here that I love, although I do quite like [name_f]Lyla[/name_f].

I love [name_f]Acacia[/name_f]! Some of the others are a bit too out there for me.

I picked [name_f]Acacia[/name_f] with [name_f]Athena[/name_f] as a strong runner up. However, had [name_f]Lyla[/name_f] been [name_f]Delilah[/name_f], it would have been the winner for me.
You may already have you mn picked but I’d love to see [name_u]River[/name_u] as a middle name for any of these I’ve mentioned.

I love [name_f]Athena[/name_f] the most. [name_u]River[/name_u] would be my 2nd choice:)

I voted [name_f]Lyla[/name_f], which I almost love (however, I do actually love the [name_f]Lila[/name_f] spelling!). I love [name_f]Alaska[/name_f] in a GPish sort of way. I think Ocea looks intriguing, but I’d opt for [name_f]Oceana[/name_f] or [name_f]Oceane[/name_f] instead, as Ocea reminds me too much of the government group OSHA (pronounced the same way).

I really like [name_f]Athena[/name_f] and [name_f]Lyla[/name_f]. Intrigued by Ocea, haven’t heard it before. Good luck!

I love [name_f]Athena[/name_f], its beautiful and strong! I also like [name_f]Alaska[/name_f] and [name_f]Lyla[/name_f] though, and [name_u]River[/name_u] in the middle spot!

  1. [name_f]Athena[/name_f] - she’s strong with a touch of quirkiness, and different but not too unusual. A gorgeous name.
  2. [name_f]Acacia[/name_f]
  3. [name_u]River[/name_u]

[name_u]Love[/name_u] [name_f]Athena[/name_f]. [name_m]Don[/name_m]'t care much for [name_f]Lyla[/name_f]… it’s too much like [name_f]Lila[/name_f] and [name_f]Layla[/name_f]. I love [name_f]Lyra[/name_f] which has a different vibe to me. [name_u]River[/name_u] and [name_f]Alaska[/name_f] are both GP’s to me but I would easily use either one in the middle.

Oh, and I met an [name_f]Acacia[/name_f] once… a very pretty girl in her early twenties. I think that name could grow on me.

I really like [name_f]Lyla[/name_f] and [name_u]River[/name_u].

I love [name_f]Athena[/name_f] and I also like [name_f]Lyla[/name_f] (love the [name_f]Lila[/name_f] spelling more) and [name_f]Acacia[/name_f]. Nevaya sounds very pretty but I think she’d spend her entire life telling people howo to spell and pronounce it. Maybe you like [name_f]Neva[/name_f], [name_f]Nerea[/name_f] or [name_f]Nerida[/name_f]? To me they give off a similar vibe.
The other three names are not really my style. Ocea makes me think of [name_u]Ocean[/name_u] or [name_f]Oceana[/name_f] but with the last letter(s) chopped off, as if it’s somehow not really “complete”. [name_u]River[/name_u] is very nice but I much prefer it on a boy, and [name_f]Alaska[/name_f] just makes me think of the place and of a [name_m]John[/name_m] [name_u]Green[/name_u] book with a character of the same name. I can’t really imagine it on a “real” person.

thankyou for all the replies :slight_smile: a few of you have used the term GP, what does that mean? athena is a gorgeous name im just not sure if its a bit too much for a first name? too much to live up too sort of thing? i do love it for a middle name though

Guilty pleasure! :slight_smile:

[name_f]Lyla[/name_f] most definitely. [name_f]Athena[/name_f] and [name_f]Acacia[/name_f] are great, too.

[name_f]Alaska[/name_f] just sounds the best! [name_f]Lyla[/name_f] is the least unique of all, easiest to pronounce but I don’t find the name appealing.

1 [name_f]Athena[/name_f] - feminine and mythological
2 [name_f]Acacia[/name_f] - an underused nature name
3 [name_f]Lyla[/name_f] - I prefer the more vintage [name_f]Lila[/name_f] spelling but this name is pretty

[name_f]Lyla[/name_f]/[name_f]Lila[/name_f]/[name_f]Lilah[/name_f] is becoming quite popular, at least in the US Midwest. I have always liked [name_f]Acacia[/name_f]; a nature name, but very accessible while being unique.
