Re: Wylie or Wiley?
in reply to a message by honnybee94
My three thoughts are:
-the cartoon coyote
-the fact that “wily” isn't a particularly flattering description
-that it sounds like “Riley” said with a speech impediment
Also, your husband should have an equal say. If he doesn’t like it, you need to let it go. You wouldn’t like it if he pushed for a name you hated.
It sounds like you’re looking for names with a bit of a cowboy/American Southwest feel. Those aren’t really my forte (although I do like Virgil and Clement), but you might find things you both like if you use that as a search parameter.

He does have equal say, I'm not pushing it. However this was just a discussion for suggestions. As expressed in the post, I have not found a name that I have liked as much as I liked this one. He also is not my husband.
