Please tell me what you think of the following names. Similar-sounding recommendations also welcome!
Mia Nora Thalia Mara Maya Cora |
|
Mia - feels incomplete
Nora - SUPER trendy and feels like a nickname Thalia - pretty and interesting but might have pronunciation issues Mara - fine Maya - fine but a little dated Cora - trendy but probably my favorite from this list Somewhat similar: Cara/Kara Paloma Laura Naya |
These are...not good. OP, I love Cora, Nora and Thalia. I believe Thalia is Jewish though, if you're not and that matters to you. There's also Maura and Lara. |
|
Mia - like Nora - like, very popular Thalia - no Mara - ok Maya - ok Cora - terrible |
|
Mia - basic bitch
Nora - basic bitch but classier Thalia - greek, kind of cool Mara - boring Maya - people will mispronounce it her whole life Cora - ugly, hate it |
|
Who mispronounces Maya?
Talia is often Jewish or with accent over the "i" for Spanish-speakers I've heard two different pronunciations for Mara Other short names ending in -a, since that seems to be what you're going for... Ana/Anna Lila/Lilah Sela/Selah Leah/Leia Layla/Laila/Leila Maura Dana Dara Ella Ila/Ayla |
| Clara |

OP we have VERY similar tastes in names, all of these names were on my list save for Mara.
Mia - love Nora - I know soooo many baby/toddler Nora's, so this one was out for me, but I do like it. Thalia - very pretty but as someone mentioned, very Jewish. Mara - I don't love this one as much but I don't hate it. Maya - love Cora - love Other names that were on our list: Isla Leila Lila Eliza Nina Celia Lily Mila Eloise |
|
I know sisters named Maya and Thalia. They have a 3rd sister, Alanna.
I love all three names! |
Which name did you end up going with? |
| I love Mia. Definitely the best on your list. I know way too many little Mayas and don’t even like the way it sounds. Not really a fan of your other names. But Mia is lovely. |
|
Thalia is one if the 9 Greek muses.
https://www.britannica.com/topic/Thalia-Greek-mythology I don’t think it is a particularly Jewish name. |
This. Not sure what pp was thinking. That’s my favorite from your list, op. |
| I like Cora |
|
Like Mia, Nora (despite popularity), and Thalia a lot!
