Name dilemma.(girls name)?
I know it's not my problem. But I mean it is my niece after all. Anyways, My sister is having a baby girl, and she is set on naming her Tillahney Nicola. (Tillahney is pronounced till-awn-ee). Honestly, I think it is just horrid, but she is set on it. And says nothing I say will change her mind. So Ive accepted it. I am just curious if ANY one out there would actually like this name? Do you actually like it?
Update:Her nickname(according to my sister) would be Lahnie (law-nee). But I'm tempted to just call her Nicola/Nici instead. but will see.

I agree, that is an God awful name. Maybe she can go by "Tilly"?
EDIT: Oh dear. I'm not sure what's worse, to be quite honest! At least when the girl is old enough she can go by whatever nickname she likes, or change it altogether the best of luck to your niece xx
I agree with all the answers, terrible name and Lahnie as a nickname is equally as bad. You should print all of these opinions out and show her just how many people are opposed to it. Not one person liked it... tell her to get a clue!
Why not just try to convince her to use the name Lahnie Nicola- that isn't ANYWHERE near as bad as Tillahney. Where did she even find that name?!?!?!
I don't like Tillahney. But Nicola as a middle name would be good :-)
Why not show her this question and the answers it gets, and she might see sense?
She could pick a simalar but better name than Tillahney (I'm having trouble pronouncing it, let alone spelling it!).
No, I don't like it too. Because when they want to call her they will say Till, Tilly & sounds bad to me.
I hope she could change her mind. Nicola is good & Nici or Niki is not a unique name though, but still is ok.
Lahnie is good I like it.
ICK! But i do like the nickname Lahnie
Theres still hope!
My parents were set on Katyra Shea but changed their mind last minute(: Thank god!
Your'e right- its horrid, but I guess if she went by 'Tilly' it wouldnt be AS horrid. Add the 'Nicola' and that has got to be one of the worst names I have ever heard. You have to do something!
Sorry, but that is an awful name. I feel bad for your niece! I would try to start calling her Tila for short - at least that isn't so bad.
It kinda sounds Hawaiian. I guess it's kinda cute but I would call her Tilly or Hanney:)
no not really and lahnie sounds too much like lawn
