Do you like the name

Question

I just found out I am pregnant with a GIRL! My name is Ashley and it means from ash tree meadow. I heard the name Aisley and I fell in love with it. It has a similar meaning, dwells at the ash tree meadow. Is that good or bad that they have similar meanings, and do you think they sound or look too alike? When I read Aisley I might read it Ashley because they look too similar. I could Spell it Aisly, Aislee, or Aisleigh, but I like normal spellings better.

Answer 1

thats really pretty! do it.

Answer 2

I have never heard of Aislee just Ainsley.  I dont like Aislee but I like Ainsley a lot.

Answer 3

It is very similar and i could definitely see people accidentally reading it as Ashley. But, the cool thing too is that it is so similar to your name! Especially the meanings. If you really like it then go with it.

I think you should vary the spelling slightly though, I like Aisly or you could do Aislie. I don't like double e's, i always feel like it is trying too hard to be different!

Answer 4

If you really like the name then go ahead and name her that.

It doesn't matter what other people think. But if you are really worried, you could always use it as a middle name.

Unless you change the spelling, the names look too much alike. I would spell it Aislee. I know you like normal spellings, but I think that spelling is very elegant.

Hope I helped, and congrats!
