Hi! Deciding between 3 names for our baby girl
And would love some opinions!
Lielle-maybe call her Lia/Lilly
Yakira-call her Kira
Anaelle- but pretty long name

In my mind, Lielle, Lia, and Lilly are three different names.

Of all of these names I like Lilly best but if I had to choose between Lielle and Yakira I would choose Yakira.

To me Anaelle is the nicest out of the three. But that's just me... What

I know several Liel's (that's the spelling they use) and just one Anaelle. Both pretty names, but maybe it comes down to whether or not you want to give a trending name or one less common.

I don't mean to be crude but I'm not sure that Anael/Anaelle is a wise choice.

I like Yakira best but I don't like the name Kira.

Kira is by far my favorite of these three choices.

I like them all! have you met your baby? it's easier to choose a name when you see her. and the nicknames are cute for little ones but think about her name when she's an adult too. anaele to me had infertility connotations

Keep in mind you prob don’t want to use Lilly - it’s the name of the female satan
I love Yakira

Lilly is the female satan? Scratching Head

I thought Lilis (Lilith) is the name of the lady demon/sheid

I think maybe you aren't aware of the correct pronunciation...it's"ahna-elle". But probably the second spelling is better than the first.

I have taught many girls named Annaelle. If you like it, it’s pretty.
Personally, I like Yakira better.

I know several girls called Lilly (most actually named Leah) and no one has ever brought up that reference.

Um Lilly is a different spelling of Lily, which is literally just a flower and nothing to do with Lilith. Rolling Eyes

Or it's short for Lillian...an older vintage name that has made a bit of a comeback in recent years.

Yakira is one of my favorite names! Unfortunately, DH didn't agree with me Smile
