I don't know your exact style of names that you like, but here's a few other suggestions:<br />Asha (means Hope, pronounced Aw-sha)<br />Amelie (A different version of Amelia, pronounced A-meal-lee)<br />Alana (A-lawn-a)<br />Elaina (E-lane-a)<br />Anna<br />There's a few off the top of my head! Whatever you decide to name her, I'm sure will fit her perfectly. Praying for your journey![: Such a blessingJennahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08801701788502988956noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-373772918875153194.post-86072899500381808942012-01-30T15:05:55.678-07:002012-01-30T15:05:55.678-07:00New favorite: Elena!New favorite: Elena!Kellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09602644718759329048noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-373772918875153194.post-64419189827989794422012-01-30T13:51:57.251-07:002012-01-30T13:51:57.251-07:00Love your Blog!

Thank you for choosing such a sweet little angel! What about just shortening her name to Aly? Her given name could still be Alyssa. Some of the families blog's that I follow choose a completely new name and the kids seem to adjust well. Some change it on their first trip and the nannies even start to call the child by their new name. No matter what her name is, she is sooo blessed to have a mommy that cares and loves her so much already! God Bless you on your journey and I can't wait to keep reading about all of the awesome things that God has instore for your beautiful family!<br /><br />Erika in WIErikahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11156425133470880514noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-373772918875153194.post-74874606577376962272012-01-26T22:36:35.731-07:002012-01-26T22:36:35.731-07:00I am going to have to say that I like Amelia also....I am going to have to say that I like Amelia also. <br /><br />Stephanie LynchStephaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05265203665195988963noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-373772918875153194.post-39678022919978278342012-01-26T18:37:05.604-07:002012-01-26T18:37:05.604-07:00Melissa works with the -ssa ending of Alyssa.

I think it would be close enough. What say you? <br />(Amelia also happens to be my daughter's name so I'm a big fan already. :))-Special Mothertivity-https://www.blogger.com/profile/18203617582584741409noreply@blogger.com
