Re: Finnish names for a real baby
I like Saari Irina and Milla. I have a friend named Aila. She's not Finnish, but her name is (she says). There's nothing about it on this site, but it may still be...I love her name. I also love Matleena, Tanja, Sofia, Suoma, Siiri, and Heidi, and those are listed as Finnish by this site.For boys, I like Nikolaus Laine (afraid it would be pronounced "Lane", though), and Matias Sisu. I love the name Paavo, too, even though that wasn't one of the choices. And Elias and Henri are great Finnish names I found on this site, too.You should show your friend the btn list of Finnish names:

I like Suoma, too. Also Siiri. Good point on Laine's potential pronunciation; I think that would definitely be what happens.
