Well my husband and I are trying to conceive... And we've decided on first names but no luck with middle names as of yet.

For a girl we've chosen, ZAYLIE. However, he would like it spelt ZAILIE (which spelling do you prefer?).
For a boy we've chosen, ADONIS.
The last name is Wilson, so any middle name ending with an N sound will be undesireable to me.

I have a 5 year old named VANCE ALEXANDER. So I'd like something ... similar maybe? I don't know.

Some names we have thought of thus far have been.
Zaylie...
Alexa, Paje, Aleksus, Lisabeth, Monet (pronounced moan-A), Kate, Aliviah, Amaris, Jahnny.

Adonis...
Dominic, Donovan, Luke, Broderick, Dontay, Theodore, Romeo, Treyton, Macallister, Anthoney.

Help please!! I'd greatly appreciate any input, advice, suggestions. Thanks!! =)

I think I prefer Zailie it looks less... trendy?

Vance Alexander &....

Zailie Genevieve
Zailie Aurora
Zailie Rhiannon
Zailie Kerensa
Zailie Elora
Zailie Honora

Adonis (I would avoid Dominic, Donovan & Dontay = too much "d" sound)

Adonis Theodore works.

Well let me first say that Adonis is a great name! It was one of my favorites when we were naming our son! Adonis Theodore sounds nice, and i personally like Adonis Leopold. As for Zaylie, the spelling isnt that important but i think the name itself sounds too trendy for me. But if you love it and wish to use it I love Monet as a middle name and Lisabeth is sweet too.

I like Zaylie. It's a different name to begin with but with the y, you add a little extra spice.
For example: My name is Zayda and I think that it looks better than Zaida. It's looks more 'unique' and 'different' because not a lot of names have both Z and Y. I never got teased either, for having a unique name, instead I got alot of compliments.

Zaylie Alexa

&

Adonis Luke

sound great IMO.

Good luck!

I like:

Zailie Kate

&

Adonis Luke

Since the first names are unusual, I think it sounds nice to set them off with an uncomplicated middle name.
