I'm watching a play right now and one of the characters' name is Milay. I have always loved the name Leia (lay-uh), and I really would love to use it, but I think it's too short. What do you think of the name Milaya? I'm not sure oif I just made it up, or if I've heard it before. But hearing the name Milay just made me think of the possibility of having a longer name for Leia. Oh, and how would you spell it? I thought of Milaya/Malaya/Mileia/Maleia...

    AND, I of course love thinking of baby names even though that is a VERY far in the future thing for me because I'm still young!

I don't so much like Malaya/Maleia. It doesn't sound like a real name to me for some reason. I think Leia on it's own is absolutely gorgeous. I don't really like it in much other name.

Yeah I'm still not sure if I like Malaya. I really love Leia, but I don't know if I can picture myself using it.
