Kennaly?
WDYTO Kennaly Grace as a double fn? Does Grace Kennally sound better? What about Kenley Grace or Grace Kenley? Since it's anglicized, I feel we have some liberty in the spelling, so what spelling(s) do you prefer?
I know it sounds tryndee, but I'm looking for a name ending in the "ly" sound & dh likes that its meaning is related to wolves (according to www.babynamesworld.com/meaning_of_Kenneally.html & www.irishbabynamesplus.com/names/anglicized-irish-baby-name-kennelly.html )

I think this name is supposed to be spelled Coneelly and prn. "Con-nee'- lee". But that's just what I'm guessing from the babynamesworld page.
I can't help hearing the word KENNEL in it. Like a dog kennel.
I think Kenley would be okay as a trendy surnamey-type name and probably the easiest Anglicization to adjust to (I'm already familiar with the name Tenley), or Kenna-Lee as a combo name. But the -ly or -lly ending makes the "kennel" association inescapable for me.

I first thought of a dog kennel too
Kennel-y, of or relating to a kennel? I don't care for Kenley or Kenna-Lee either but they're better than Kennaly imo.
Agree, and it also looks like a typo of Kennedy.

Ditto the kennel thing.
