Clearly, the best course of action is to post the options and let the Caribbean decide.

How do you pronounce Carys?
Elise is one of our names and I love it. It's my favorite.
Emily LeaAnn. He has to be joking with that right?
I'm afraid not. See what I am up against!
Carys- Care-riss

I'm also anti-Carys.
I actually don't encounter other Emilies that often, but I guess it didn't really explode in popularity until I was in high school.
Elise makes me think of the girl on the first season of America's Next Top Model. And Christin. I am helpful.
I thought Carys was a typo and you meant Cary, spelled oddly. I've never seen it before.
Anything ending in "ly" should be immediately forgotten if you're going with Lea Ann.
I think Elise is a bit of a mouthful with Lea Ann. Eleeeese Leeeea Ann. Too much eeeeeeee.
Names are hard. I don't envy the task of choosing one...
Thanks for the honest opinions! It is exactly what I need. We have plenty of time to decide, change our mind, and decide again.
My mom thought Carys was one of those random Y names, and I had to explain it to her that it is Welsh.

I only like Jillian and Sophia, and Sophia is better with Lee Ann.
Carys is made up, admit it.
The nerve!

Your H really did just pick his names off the top 10 girl name list, didn't he? I really love the name Sophia, but I think it's in the top 3 right now. Maybe you can just tell him that any name he picks cannot be on the top 20 list.

Mmm, not sure about Carys. It's the y that's distracting me. Though the more I look at it perhaps I see the appeal. What about something like Maren?
I wish someone needed a boys name. I suggest Hayes.
Thank you! We also agree on Sean.

Well, if you pinky swear.
What about Caryn?

I like it, but it's my husband's BFF wife's name. And I dont want to give her big head.
MORE SUGGESTIONS PLEASE

Yeah, I don't mind it either. I don't mind Elise except that it kinda reminds me of "Lyse". Ew.
I bet her FUPA's name is Shane, like the gunslinger/drifter of literature.--HappyTummy
I think you mean Karen.
I know I've said it before, but I love love love the name Aurelia. There's just no way any kid of mine could pull that name off.

It makes me think of areola.

For less then ten cents a day, you can feed a hungry child.
I just couldn't give my kid a name that probably over 50% of the population would have no idea how to pronounce or spell. I know a woman with the name Carrine who typically goes by Carrie and that's kind of close to Carys I suppose.
I agree that Sophia sounds the nicest, but it is very popular. This website tells you how popular a name is by state though, so it gives you a better idea of how popular it is locally: www.babynamewizard.com
