Help[Opinions] Re: Laura
in reply to a message by skifox
I know you mentioned you like the name Emma in another post. What do you think of Gemma?
GEMMA
Gender: Feminine
Usage: Italian, English (British)
Pronounced: JEM-ə (English) [key]
Medieval Italian nickname meaning "gem, precious stone". It was borne by the 13th-century wife of the Italian poet Dante Alighieri.
Also, what about the name Liana? It sounds similar to Laura, but I like it much better. It's very pretty and also not heard of as often so I don't think it's as "boring."
LIANA
Gender: Feminine
Usage: Italian, Portuguese, English
Short form of ELIANA (1), JULIANA, LILIANA, and other names that end in liana. This is also the word for a type of vine that grows in jungles.
I think Robyn, Heather, and Gemma / Liana sound very pretty together. Also, since you like Rose, I think it goes very well with both names as a middle name. Gemma Rose. Liana Rose. For Gemma, I think it could even be hypenated (like Mary-Kate). I know someone who named her daughter Gemma-Rose.
