I think Kaye-Lea Dianne sounds fine. Is it pronounced like Lee or like Lia??? Either way it's very nice, I was just curious. I like it because it isn't so trendy and overused as a lot of the names are these days.

If you are using your mother-in-law's name in there before your mother's middle name, I think your partner should let you keep "Dianne." Kaye-Lea Karyn would sound strange... Kaye-Lea Dianne is cute. If it's a big issue I would just drop all the names and give the child an original name. I have nothing against naming a child after a family member you love, but sometimes it's just too complicated.

I really like Kaye Lea Dianne. I just don't like the hyphen part. I'd just leave it Kaye Lea and use the two names as her first name. I had a girlfriend named Jo Lynn in high school and it worked well!

I see where you are coming from with wanting to give your baby a name that has your nan's, mother-in-law, and mothers name in it so instead of doin that why dont you just come up with a name that is similar to them. Such as Kaylee(Kaye-Lea) Diamond(Dianne) or something like that. Hope I help!

I think it's very pretty, especially since it's all after people. Does Kaye-Lea sound like Kay-Le or Kay-Lee-Ah? Either way it's pretty. I like the Dianne but maybe change it to Diane, Deanna or Diana?

i think dianne is a lovely name, and honestly a middle name is usually something that is more special to a parent than a child, my middle name is frances, and i while i was never fond of it i knew i was named after my grandmother and i also wasnt another ___Marie or ___Ann your child will probably get a nickname or go through a phase where she doesnt like her name at all, but if she is named after a loved one in the end she will appreciate being a name sake, hope this helped a lil GOOD LUCK!!

I like the name and I love that you want to honor your family when naming you daughter.
I prefer Kaye to Karyn.
Dianne is very old fashioned and sounds a little dated, but sinces its a family name and a middle name I don't see why that matters. Is there any other name you could use which would honor you mother? Her maiden name (if she has one) or her hometown?

Kaylee, Kaleigh, Kaley, etc. Go for the pronunciation, not the funky spelling. I know you're naming after two people, but she's going to be spelling that forever to everyone she meets. The middle name Dianne is fine. Middle names aren't used much. If it has significance, use it!
