My three favorite one syllable word names for girls.

If you had to name your daughter one of these, which ones and why? Which one is your least favorite?

Skye
Jade
Rain

You can change spellings.

I'd choose Skye, in honour of the island. Jade is my least favourite.

Hmm, maybe Jade. I like Skye more right now but Jade just feels more my vibe. Maybe it's because Skye looks more trendy.

Rain is my least favorite, it's tacky imo.

Skye

It has more spunk than the other two.
Jade has been played out imo (mostly due to overuse as a mn) and Rain seems incomplete or boring or both, I can't quite come up with the right word for how I feel about Rain as a name atm (so it is my least favourite).

I like all three a lot, have for years, but my favourite is definitely Sky and I prefer that spelling. I’ve always thought it was so pretty, friendly and happy sounding. Definitely a name I’d consider using.

My least fave would probably be Rain, but it’s a very hard decision!

Skye

It's neat. Breezy and spiffy and simple. And it's a place name, so not as ... lame? as Sky.

Jade is alright, I don't love it. I would think it was more interesting spelled Jaid. Not sure the respelling would be worth the hassle

Rain I don't care for - a damp gray and melancholy vibe, I don't think is namey. Reign is better. Or Rayne - but that reminds me of a plumbing company that operated where I grew up, I guess the plumber used his surname as a pun. hah.

I would pick Rain. Jade is the only gemstone name I don’t like and Skye I can take or leave.

Maybe Jade? I really like it for a middle name though. Not so much a first. Skye and Rain are a little too wordy for me.

Hmm, if I had to use one.... I think I'd use Rain, but I'd spell it Raine. Skye is my favourite, but I already know a Skye, so that one's out. And I do like Jade, but I don't like the meaning, and my reasons for liking it are kind of Orientalist, which is problematic. Also Jade is so dated for me, and not in a fun way.

Although, I would worry about a Rain inevitably being teased with that old song "Rain, rain, go away" ;)

Rain

I like the name Rain. I would never spell it as Rayne, though. Raine could be a possibility, but only as a middle name. Rain is beautiful, pretty much unisex, calming, and soothing.

Skye is meh and I never really cared for it. Jade is also okay and I like the etymology but the name itself I wouldn’t give to daughter.
