  1. If you want to be correcting everyone that meets her for the first time on the name pronunciation, go ahead and do what you will.  But remember:

    It's HER NAME, her identity, for the rest of her life!  Odd spellings, different pronunciations and such may be cutsie-poopsie now, but will grate on her later in life.  I had a last name growing up that was visually unpronounceable, and I got REAL TIRED REAL FAST having to correct people on how to say it.

    Give a boy his fathers' name for a middle name, or your dad's or your father-in-laws.


  2. I love Lyla. Not crazy about Marie but it does flow. How about:

    Maddison

    Peyton

    Corrine

    Claire

    Benjamin:

    Jacob

    Morgan

    Aiden

    Joseph


  3. Lyla Marie - I really like the spelling, I much prefer it to Lila. Yes, this name flows really nicely - love it!

    Benjamin Jacob - I think Benjamin Jacob is nice. And the alliteration with the Benjamin Barker bit is sooo  cute.

    I also like Benjamin Andrew, Benjamin Nathan, Benjamin Christopher, Benjamin Thomas and Benjamin Zach.

    Hope I helped!

  4. Lyla Marie Barker sounds great!

    Benjamin Barker is also great as long as you don't mind that whole "Demon Barber of Fleet Street" thing. lol. Honestly I think that just ups the appeal for me.

    Great names!

    Benjamin James Barker

    Benjamin Michael Barker

    Benjamin Andrew Barker

    Benjamin Jacob Barker

  5. They're both really nice!  They definitely flow.  Im not so keen on the name Marie but it sounds good there : )

  6. I love the name Lyla!! Lyla Marie and Benjamin Luke♥

  7. Lyla- what a BEAUTIFUL name!! I love it!!

    Hmm Benjamin James is nice. You realise BJ means ******** right? or is that what you're worried about? If you're worried about kids teasing him about initials BJ don't worry, most friends barely know your middle name

  8. Matthew or Joseph

  9. I really like Lyla. Marie is such a filler middle name, I would never use that. I like Benjamin, too. Maybe Benjamin Lucas, or Benjamin Reid.

  10. I love the name Lyla, it's short and soft and sweet. I've always liked the name Benjamin. Just Benjamin Barker is a little weird, but with the James its nice. And who am I to say its weird, I'm Chloe C Chan! And C doesn't stand for anything.

    If I had to make a suggestion, maybe Lorelei Spring Barker or something for the girl, and maybe Creek Tristan Barker for the boy.

  11. well 1st off i love the Name lyla.

    im so sick of Names that you can jus get off a website for the 100 most popular names of ..2008- and so on..

    its a beautiful Name! i love it!!

    Benjamin Connor

    Benjamin Perice

  12. good names...

    Benjamin James Barker

  13. Lyla Marie is really pretty.

    Benjamin Neil

    Benjamin Todd

    Benjamin Ethan

    Benjamin Patrick

    Benjamin James

    Benjamin Troy

    Benjamin Eli

  14. i do not like the girls name at all layla is prettier i think and benjamin is just too old fashioned!

    but if u choose benjamin i would go with john for a middle name  

  15. I like Lyla Marie Barker.  Cute!

    Benjamin Everett Barker

    Benjamin Matthew Barker

    Benjamin Henry Barker

    Just one slight note: Remember that Benjamin will likely be Ben as he gets older.  How do you like the sound of Ben Barker?

  16. I really like lyla. but i wouldn't consider benjamin... only b/c of the last name. benjamin barker is the "real" name of sweeny todd and i wouldn't want my child's name to be associated with a barber who kills his clients.

  17. I think Lyla is pretty, but I can't see it aging very well. Leila ('LAY-la') or Lyra maybe?

    Marie is a common filler name, it's just a waste of a middle name. Something like Lyla Marianne would be a bit more interesting.

    Benjamin Isaac

    Benjamin Noah

    Benjamin George

    Benjamin Arthur

    Benjamin Oliver

    Benjamin Luke

    ?

  18. I really like you Lyla Marie Barker...For Benjamin, I think you should try other family last names in there and see what you come up with...You could go back a few generations for the name....A boy really needs a distinguished sounding full name.

  19. Franklin?

    Joseph?
