[name_m]Hi[/name_m] berries,
[name_f][/name_f]
I recently noticed that most of the girls in my family have the “lee” sound in their names, not necessarily in the same place, but I think it’s a fun connection! [name_f][/name_f] [name_f]My[/name_f] mom, grandma, great grandma, my sisters, and I all have “lee” somewhere in our name (in sound, not spelling). [name_f][/name_f] I am curious to explore this a little further—I already have some “lee” names on my list (Evangeline, Éliane, [name_f]Elisabet[/name_f], [name_f]Ophelia[/name_f], [name_f]Talia[/name_f], [name_f]Eliora[/name_f], [name_f]Eulalie[/name_f], [name_f]Odilia[/name_f], [name_f]Emilia[/name_f], Liliana), but would love to hear any names you love that have the lee sound in it (preferably not just at the end of the name, but I’m open to those too!), or any you would love to see someone else use!

Thank you!
[name_f]Emily[/name_f] and [name_f]Emmeline[/name_f]
I was surprised by how few ‘lee’ names I have on my lists!!

[name_f]Caliadne[/name_f]
It turns out I like this sound, there’s a lot…
Emily, Lily, Liliana, Leona, Eliana, Callie, Ellie, Selena / Celina, Selene / Celine, Lena, Everly, Julia, Juliet, Millie, Zelie, Marceline, Leonora, Cleo, Nayeli, Elia
Ooh, that’s so interesting that so many of you have -lee sounds!
[name_f][/name_f]
[name_f]My[/name_f] favourites with -lee (not at the end)…
[name_f][/name_f]
[name_f]Leonie[/name_f]
[name_f]Leah[/name_f]
[name_f]Aveline[/name_f]
The literal only name on my list with a [name_m]Lee[/name_m] sound is [name_m]Arlie[/name_m] for girls. For boys I have [name_m]Wesley[/name_m], [name_m]Wiley[/name_m], and [name_m]Leland[/name_m], but I think this made me realize I don’t love the [name_m]Lee[/name_m] sound too much! Isn’t it strange how something like that can be polarizing without it being intentional? Like I would have said I don’t like frilly girls names, but I never would have thought deeply enough about it to realize that the [name_m]Lee[/name_m] or [name_f]Leah[/name_f] sounds are part of that!
Sorry for any repeats.

somehow the only ones on my list are [name_f]Meliora[/name_f] and [name_f]Celia[/name_f]! I also like [name_f]Cliona[/name_f], [name_f]Thalia[/name_f], [name_f]Alethea[/name_f], [name_f]Juliette[/name_f], [name_m]Charlie[/name_m], [name_f]Cleo[/name_f], [name_f]Hadley[/name_f], [name_f]Aliyah[/name_f] (AW-lee-uh, the arabic prn), [name_f]Zelie[/name_f], and some others.

Admittedly I’m on a major -lee ending kick right now, but I’ll try not to suggest too many of those
[name_f][/name_f]
[name_f]My[/name_f] favorites…
[name_f][/name_f]
I know a lot of these may be too close to names already on your list, but I figured I’d suggest them anyway!
