How would you spell this?

Question

I want to name my daughter Alannah (one variation of the spelling). And I want her middle name to be either Katherine (my prefered spelling) or Mae (spelling is staying on this one). Both of the middle names are family names so neither is prefered over the other but one of them is staying. And no, I only want one middle name)

What middle name would you use and how would you spell both of them (if the name doesn't already have a set spelling)

I will be pronouncing the name A-lon-a, not A-lane-a

Answer 1

Alanna easy, teachers, state employees, etc. can't really mis- pronounce that. Kathrynn is different for a classic name.

Answer 2

I like the spelling Alannah. Its prettier looking with the H on the end than just plain Alana. I think that the spelling would also depend on the way you want it pronounced. I would pronounce Alannah different than I would pronounce Alana or Alaina.

I think the middle name would depend on what your last name is. If you have a long last name, I would use Mae, shorter last name Katherine.

Answer 3

I like Alannah (so people get that it's an "o" sound in the middle) and I like Mae best. Both sound good but I like Mae better. My daughter's first 2 initials are AM and her godmother (my hubby's sis-now deceased) was named May. My mom had an aunt named Mae.

Answer 4

Definitely Alana Mae

Answer 5

Oh, Alannah is such a pretty name! I think I would spell it Alana, but I like the way you spelt it too! I think the middle name should be Mae!

Alannah:
Gender: Female
Origin: Irish
Meaning: Fair, Beautiful

Answer 6

I like Alannah Katherine. But I think Katherine Mae would be cute too.

Answer 7

Alannah Maye, Alannah Mai, Alannah Mahe
Alannah Kathryn, Alannah Kathrne

Answer 8

Alana-Mae Katherine

Answer 9

I think Alannah Mae. It sounds like a really cute name.

Answer 10

Allannah Mae

Answer 11

I like name spelled Alannah and I think Mae would go best with it.

Alannah Mae.
