I can’t tell you how many times we’ve been told how pretty her name is. We just love it. It’s simple and feminine, with a kind of melodic quality. The only real downside is that you’ll–of course–be hard pressed to find the name on any of those novelty items that come with names pre-printed on them–e.g., cups, bicycle license plates, etc. This little factor has frustrated our daughter from time to time, but is no real biggie in the grand scheme of things. A few custom orders from time to time have resolved this issue.

It seems like all the names I am suggesting you have done! Oh well. :)

I actually like Nola a lot. Nola Eve is on my name list. It has this crisp, clean sound. Fresh and young without being babyish. Irish,once again. So huge bonus in my book. I don’t see any reasons at this stage for it to sky rocket. Most of the people on Yahoo Answers dislike it. Or , a lot do. It is somewhere in the 900s in America, if I remember correctly.

I love the meaning and it’s origin of :light, torch, bright OR brave as a lion

Lovely name. I don’t like enough to use – there are others that I prefer more, but, it’s in the the top 15 to top 10.

Blair Nola is also on my name list
