Advice on names

[caggimedicine79]

Ok, so it's taken us until now to even come to some sort of short list, but we're now considering the following names and I was wondering what you all thought of them? Honesty please!!

Girl: Milla Jemima Evans
Boy: Milo Thomas Evans

Thanks for your replies - no of course you haven't offended me puppylove... I wanted honest opinions! The only concern I have with Milla is that people will always ask how to spell it.... but I'm not sure that's a good enough reason not to go with it if it's what we like. I'm reluctant to go back to the drawing board, but I think I might be considering some other names again just incase!! Thanks again though

I like Milo- I think it's the name of the little boy in The Phantom Toolbooth which is a great kids' book. I wouldn't worry about the spelling thing- some people will spell even a straightforward name in funny ways. I got a picture back from playschool with Elliott spelt Eliote- I know the double letters will always get confusing but an e on the end?!

Mila is on our list for baby #2 (when we have it) if we have a girl, but would spell it Mila (pronounced 'Mee-la')
How do you pronounce Milla? Is it Mill-ah? Lovely name
