Re: Spanish vs. Trendy Conflict... Need Help!
in reply to a message by Cambria
Yay! Someone who shares the admitted hyphen fetish! Feels good to be out of the closet... I replied to someone else's post a few minutes ago, fully taking responsibility for having a guilty pleasure concerning a certain punctuation mark... lol.
Love your combos... I do really like Bailey. I don't know how that missed my surname list! I love surnames, but not super-overused ones like Taylor, Jackson, McKenzie, etc... but in combination with another name and a hyphen, I am considering names like "Paige" and "Brady," which wouldn't normally strike my fancy on their own.
ALSO, I will have to run "Delaina" by my hubby tonight! THAT is BRILLIANT. Delaina sounds quite Spanish... I mean, I know his relatives could pronounce it... I just MIGHT be able to get away with naming a girl "Delaney" if I tell my husband that he and the other Spanish relatives could call her "Delaina." I mean, my name is Noelle, but they have trouble saying it, so the call me "Noelia" and it doesn't bother me at all.
