I know it's not always that popular but I like the name Leila so going to go with it, and need a middle name now. My other dd is called Sofia Grace. What are your thoughts?

My other dd's middle name is Grace, mine is Jane but she could have that too. Like Rose and May :) thanks

I too thought of Yasmin straight off! Not even a name I often suggest on Baby Names.

I agree Leila Rose is lovely but my best friend named her dd Iona Rose so wondering if it would be bad form to use it?

You'd think it would be an easier business this naming lark!

Leila is a beautiful name. Leila Hope sounds good with your other daughter's name too! I think you should go for a monosyllabic name for the MN. I do like Fay and Faith. May and June also nice.
