Girl Names

It's a girl!  My DD's name is Delaney so I am looking for something to go with it.  Our last name is very boring/common so nearly anything goes, but preferably more than one syllable.  .So far we are throwing around Kinley and Adeline (add-a-line) nn addie.  What are your thoughts on these two names, or any suggestions to add?  Thanks!!

My daughter's name is Adalyne (add-a-line). Beautiful name. :) I always get compliments on it. :)

I also like Kinley, it is pretty too.

ETA: We don't do the nickname Addie. We use her actual name. Addie is really popular.

Caroline?

I like Adeline but Addie/Addy is hugely popular at our daycare at least.

Kinley is a little modern for my tastes, but it's cute.

Pretty sure we are naming our little girl Kinley, so I am partial to that. Adeline is also cute though, and I do love the nn Addie.

My DD's name is Adeline too. I love it and we don't use a nn either.  So funny, Delaney is the first name i loved when i found out i was pregnant- we have similar taste! I actually think that Kinley goes much better w/Delaney since Adeline is an old fashioned name and to me Delaney and Kinley are more modern if that makes sense.

I love the name Delaney! I would consider it for a second daughter - we're choosing a unisex name for this one, so I wouldn't want anything uber-girly for another daughter and Delaney is a favorite. We're not having anymore kids, but some other names I loved:

Quinn

Carter

Harper (too trendy now)

I love Delaney too. I'm not crazy about your other two choices. Kinley sounds made up to me and Adaline and the whole Addie trend is way too popular for my taste.
Suggestions from my personal list that I think go well with Delaney:
Ainsley
Avery
Everly
Emerson
Sloane
Drew

I actually like Adelaide a little more than Adeline.

I also like Kinsey or Kinzie more than Kinley. I have a friend who named her baby Kinsey (I like the spelling better Kinzie though)

I think Emery is becoming more of a girls name now. That sounds like those too.

I love the name Blair.  I would use it if it went with my last name at all.  I had a sweet student with that name and have loved it ever since.
