HelpRe: Nikita, Avalyn or Marlie?
in reply to a message by AshlieLynn
I would love Marla Zoe, with Marlie as the nickname. Marlena ("mar-LAY-nah") would also be a pretty formal first name. This might be something to think about for when she is applying for jobs, etc.
Nikita reminds me of Nikita Krushchev, so I think it's a male name in Russia. How about Nikoleta, Nicoletta or Colette? or just Nika?
Avalyn is fine, but I'd prefer Evelyn, Evelina or Ava.
Kinsey reminds me of the Kinsey sex research institute.
For boys' names, I really like Asher, but it is so close to your first name-- it might get confusing (esp. mail, phone calls). What about Easton Asher?
Good luck!

Whenever i heard the name 'Nikita' I always thought of the eldest girl from The Sound of Music...was Nikita her name or am I thinking of something completely off!? Lol! I really like it for a girl rather than a boy and I have no idea why that is, but I never knew it was masculine! I definitely should have looked it up beforehand, but now I know!
LOL! Is there really a place called the Kinsey sex research institute!? Well, all the more reason to name your child that, huh!? Lol! "Mama, what is my middle name from...?" and well, what an awkward situation that one would be, lol! Thank you for warning me about this before I went and named my child that- perhaps I should change it to Kensey or Kenzey?
I'm not too fond of Marla, but I know a lot of Marlas and they're such wonderful people! I just would never want to name my kid that, I guess. I dont know why. Its a pretty name though!
Ava makes me think of Ava Gardner, whom I adore, but Ava is such a common name now-a-days! Everyone seems to be naming their child Ava!
But I think you might be going somewhere with Easton Asher, thats so cute sounding! Thank you so very much! I really do appreciate the time you took to respond!

Hmmm... I think the eldest girl in Sound of Music was Louisa, but there was a Brigitta!
I hear Kinsey mentioned as a possible name now and again... but it always makes me think of Alfred Kinsey and his sex research that came out in the 1950s! There was a movie put out about it a few years ago, too (just called Kinsey).
Best of luck-- hope you can settle on the names you like!
