Sooo.
I was talking names with my mum. long story short she doesnt like my list but meh!
anyway you Americans have got me pronouncing a few names wrong :')
apparently Ava is pronounced as AY-VA over here..
also Mum had never heard of Cadence.. but I really like it pronounced as CAY-DANCE.

I have now fallen even MORE in love with Ava and Cadence. I didnt think that was possible.
WDYT of the names? I would just love honest opinions :)

Oh.. is Ava not Ay-va? I always assumed it was... though I suppose pronouncing it ah-va or something makes sense... sorta. Idk. I do love Ava though :)

And Cadence.... is beautiful :D I always say it cay-dense, but cay-dance is nice as well!

No worries, mum doesn't like most the names on my list either... haha. And I myself fall for names FAR to easy!! :'D

Oooh, I always pronounced it Ay-va. There are other ways O_o?

I adore the name Ava. It's so sweet, but very, very popular at the moment. But that doesn't matter because I love it!

Cadence is not my cup of tea, but I definitely don't hate it. I'd probably be more likely to use it as a middle name if anything.

well being fellow aussie, i pn Ay-va, but on tv(my super sweet 16-american show) it was pn 'uh-va'
and thats how id pn cadence- cay-dense.
im a little over ava as its so popular, not sayingis not a nice name because i do like it alot but i think in 10 yrs when its popularity has died down a little i will get back into it :). As for Cadence, i dont love or hate, just nms :D
hehe my mum works in hospital and we are always discussing the good/bad/crazy names she comes across in the maternity ward :D

Of course, I am biased towad Cadence. :) I pronounce it kay-dense.

I like Ava too. A girl I work with named her girl Ava Marie. I pronounce it as long a-vuh as well.

Ava Cadence is cute now that I think of it. LOL
