About 99.9% sure we will not adopt again. Due to cancer, I've had a hysterectomy, so we don't have to worry about an accident! Anyway, I love to have names in my back pocket for just in case!

Our two kids are Kayli Dawn and Luke Thomas. (You can check out my profile to find the meaning of these names.) Anyway, it was pure accident that both kids have an L and a K in their names. My name starts with K, DH's name starts with L. So, now I'm trying to come up with names I like that would follow this pattern of containing both an L and a K.

Here is a list of what I have come up with so far. Please let me know what you think, and of other names I have not thought of!

Boys
Alek
Blake
Kolten
Kyler
Walker

Girls
Brooklyn
Kyla
Lakyn
Makayla

I love the idea of a hidden pattern in names. One that isn't obvious but you know is there!
From your list, my favourites are Blake and Makayla.. {Though I do feel Kayli & Kyla/Makayla are too close.. and the ending of Blake & Luke being the same bother's me a little!}

So my vote goes for Blake & Brooklyn.

Here's a few ideas:
*Aleksander
Aldrik
Blakely
Deklan
Eldrik
*Ezekiel
Franklin
*Kaleb
Kallum
Kalvin
*Karl
Klark
Kliff
Kollier
Kolby
Kolin
Kole
Linkoln
Malakai
Malkolm
Makswell
*Mckinley
Mikhail
Nikolas
*Nikolai
Oakley

*Aleksandra
*Aleksa
Angelika
*Jacklyn
Karlotta
*Katelyn
*Kendall
*Kimberly
Klara
Katalina
Karla
*Kathleen
Kalista
Karly
Karoline
Kelsie
Klaudia
Koral
Khloe
Kamille
Kordelia
Lark
Larkin
Nikolette
*Nikole
Skarlett
*Skyler

I tend to prefer names written a C over a K.
Makes them seem less "trendy" in my mind.

Thats so cute that they have that hidden pattern! Its not very noticeable until pointed out

I think these of your suggestions would sound nice with Kayli Dawn and Luke Thomas:

Alek
Walker
Brooklyn

I dislike Kolten, Kyler, and Kyla because they are obviously in link with Kayli and cut the "hidden pattern" out. Plus, I can only imagine Kyler/Kyla getting mixed up with Kayli a lot! Same with Makayla, they both have the Kayl part in it, making it too similar. I only dislike Blake because it has the long A that Kayli has, which could get them confused if you call out to either out loud. Mainly its just a personal pet peeve though

I can't really think of any suggestions that Yas hasn't listen Sorry!!! But I will say that from her list I do like Aleksa, Angelika, Nikolette, Nikole, and Skyler. I do think Ky names in general are too close to Kayli, but Skyler seems to hide it up well enough. Even if you use nick name Skye it just seems to have a different enough sound to it, to me personally that is.

I hope I helped!!

I hear you guys on the Ky/Kay names, was kind of thinking that way myself! In all honesty, I would prefer to find something that does NOT start with L or K, however that is proving to be difficult! With that in mind, I really like...

Aleksa
Skyler

Aleksander
Ezekiel

So, new list of possibilities...

Alek
Aleksander
Blake
Ezekiel
Walker

Brooklyn
Aleksa
Skyler
