Born in 1985 female. On introducing myself People always refer to me as kylie because they have never herd of my name before or bluntley say its a boys name, when i ask how old their boy is its always much younger than me its like peta and peter. Girl or boy im happy either way!

I found out i was having another boy after months of him being a girl it turns out its a boy so after looking up many boy names we came across riley in both but with many names you can spell it about 15 ways! the spelling we choose was RYLEE. its an awsome name and it can work with male and female.
I think...

When I found out I was pregnant with my daughter, I didn't know what name to pick and then I heard a woman call her daughter Riley and I fell in love with it. People tried to persuade me, saying oh that's a boy's name and stuff like that, but I stood by it, I didn't care! She was born August 13 last year and her name is Riley Marie and it fits her perfectly! I wouldn't have it any other way. Now I just have to find out what I'm going to name her brother, their going to be siamese twins!! He's due on August 3 this year!!
I like it...

I just had a baby girl two weeks ago and we named her Riley Elise. I love Riley even if people say it is a boy's name. I am just having second thoughts on the spelling. I picked Riley because that is the more common spelling and thought it would be easier for her in life now I am wondering if I should have gone with Rylee or Ryley. Guess it is too late now! :/

Riley
written by ...., March 20, 2008
This is a beautiful name. All of my daughter's sports have led her to some unusually named people, and Riley has always sounded the prettiest! Kylie is nothing compared to Riley!
a perfect match
written by Sinead, March 20, 2008
a struggled over a girls name for my daughter who is now 5 months. but i loved the name Riley for a girl since i was a teen and i just kept coming back to it, the only person who argued with me was my mother who complained it was a boys name but i mostly gets compliments for the name. Anyway as soon as she was born i knew i made the right choice. Her name is Riley Jaenelle or 'RJ'.

i want to name my little girl Rileigh. I'm not sure of a middle name. I was thinking Elizabeth or Kate but nothing really jumps out at me. Any suggestions of what goes good with Rileigh?
I've got a Rylee
written by maedyns_mom, May 13, 2008
My almost 2 year has Rylee for her middle name. I used this verson b/c my father's middle name is Lee, and I wanted to honor him in a way. Rylee is so chic. I love it.
