Re: Leigh or Lee
in reply to a message by AET
Lee for a boy, Leigh for a girl, is how I feel. I think it holds up really nicely as a first name, really. It's a bit dated, but that adds to the charm--she'd be the only Leigh in her class. :)
Have you thought about combos? I like the idea of:
Leigh Claudia
Leigh Guinnevere
Leigh Shoshana
Leigh Stella
Leigh Meryl
Leigh Cassandra
Leigh Adele
Leigh Fidelia
Leigh Thomasina
Leigh Petula
Leigh Georgina
Leigh Violet

I need the smell of summer--
I need its noises in my ears.
A revolution without dancing is a revolution not worth having.

Leigh Claudia looks so pretty! I really like the idea of it with a longer, very feminine middle name - I'm always like that with unisex names that I like, such as Harper. Leigh Cassandra, Leigh Violet and Leigh Shoshana all have a great sound to them too.
Hmm...I'm also liking the sound of Leigh Genevieve (though I'm pretty sure you're not a Genevieve fan, right?) and Leigh Victoria, given that Victoria is a family name that I plan to use on one of my kids :-) How about:
Leigh Persephone
Leigh Magnolia (too much, with the two 'lee' sounds?)
Leigh Amaryllis
Leigh Ariadne
Leigh Esperanza
Leigh Jocasta
Leigh Calliope
Leigh Adelaide
Leigh Carolina
Leigh Valentina
Any other suggestions would be much appreciated, as would comments on the above!
Ooh, another question - how do you think a double middle name would work with Leigh? Eg Leigh Victoria Margot...too much?
