Need Advice on a Baby Name!

I like the name Talliss too! My only thought is the spelling...I'm trying to find a boy's name for myself right now and wanting to find the right name that's unique and meaningful, but also not too complicated for a kid can be tough. But Talliss is really cute.

I don't like it but I do like the name Gabrielle. Congrats on little girl # 4!!
?? Gabrielle Talliss Pellegrino ??

Congrats on the new baby! I really like the name Talliss, it is so different, and I love the name Gabrielle. I was going to name my daughter Gabrielle or Taylor and chose Taylor out of the two.

My husband is greek and we considered some greek names also.The reason we chose not to use them was because usually people say the names with an accent .we didn't want one child with an "american name " and the other without. I do like the name Gabrielle Talliss Pellegrino. That way it goes with your other girl names. Some other greek names I like are Thalia(means blooming),Amalia(Emily). Good luck to you !

Name her Alice. I love that name and you hardly ever hear it anymore.

I think it is a great name and this is coming from a person who thinks they should hire a person at the hospital that slaps parents when they try to give their child a stupid name. So you know that I would tell you the truth. All that really matters is that you and your husband like the name. That is unless you are going to name her something like chastidy or mushroom, then I would say you need slap nurses help. lol. I love the name. It is different but cute. I even think that it will catch on and be a very popular name.

I think it's very pretty. I am assuming her name was spelled the same way you are spelling it. The only thing I would suggest would be to spell it Tallas just so that is is easier for everyone to pronounce (instead of them saying Tahl-esssssss or Tah-Leese). But I do like it! Congrats on your baby girl!!

Congratulations!!! I'm one of 4 girls... my mom said to my dad, you aren't getting any more chances either...

I love the name too!

I love it! It has a feminine sound, but a strong name, I think...

How about Talliss Joy?

I love it! the full name that you have picked out is so musical! you might also consider Isabella for a middle name? i think your pick is perfect though! Good luck!

PS - emerson is not so unusual - i love that name, too!

Talliss is a family name, and so beautiful. Congrats on the new arrival!

That sounds beautiful. Congrats!

I love it!

Congratulaitons!!

I love the name!! I love unique names and I've never heard the name Talliss before. And I think it goes great with your other daughters' names!

I really like it. She may get the nickname Tal, which is cute too!

i like the name !!!!!

oh how cute!! ur kids all even new baby tallis have old strong names i love them.. congrats ont he baby!!

Actually I like Talliss; I think it's neat. We have Linnaea Zera for our girl, and our other girl name was Iris Nadine. Iris is a Greek name too, meaning rainbow, and of course it's the latin name of lovely flowers.
Also for girls I like: Cassiope Ruth, Xyris Elena, Niambi Mara, Malaika Renee, and Khaya with any of the above middle names. But you see, I'm a biologist, and Cassiope, Iris, Linnaea, Xyris, and Khaya are all genus names of flowers or flowering shrubs, so that's me. But Talliss rocks, if you both agree with that one, it's a keeper.

I like it but I like it with one s, Tallis or just one l, Talis. And I like the two names switched like others have said too!

I like the name. It really isn't one that can get made fun of during the cruel ages and with so many children having unique names I dont think it should be an issue anymore. If you like it I say go for it, especially since there is some family history to it.

I really like the name, its unusual but in a good way! It goes very well with the middle and last name.

First off, congratulations! You sound like very enthusiastic parents! I personally would choose Talliss for a middle name. I really love the idea of honoring family members with a middle name. I think its great that you are choosing a name that is not that popular but I would not choose that name. I have a name that is unusual and hard to remember how to pronounce...I would not reccomend it. I would say to choose something that is uncommon but people know how to pronounce it.

I would be concerned to give a name that had to be spelled every time.

I LOVE TALLISS!!!! I think that is so cool...go with it! And Best Wishes!!

I love it!!! And just like that "Talliss" don't change spelling or anything. I love family names. I don't think anyone would really mess it up and to be honest, kids aren't as picky with names as they would've been 30 years ago. It'll be great to be the ONLY Talliss in her class instead of one of 3-4 Ashleys, Jennifers, or Megans. (NO offense to anyone with those names ... i've just always had doubles or triples of those in many of my kids' classes and in my own Girl Scout troop!). THEY all got unique nicknames so they could be differentiated ...

Blessings on the new addition coming soon to your family!!! Many years from now, you will have sons ... because when girls get married, you always "gain a son"!

I like it. Very Unique!
PS My daughters cousins name is Emerson Marie. =)

I love it. The double "L"s in all 3 names are cool, too.

I actually think it's beautiful. My initial thought when I read the name was, "you men like a talisman?" That's not necessarily a bad thing. But just to give you an idea of what people might associate it with. I think it is wonderful either as a first name or with the two reversed, using it as a middle name. But the combination is perfect. You or others might slip into using Tally as a nickname though, which is pretty, but a little strange here in Florida, since that typically refers to the state capital. But you could also use Lissie or Lizzie as a nickname. I am typically partial to names that aren't overly popular, but not so "strange" or unusual that they are "weird" or will date themselves. I think Talliss is perfect, no matter how you spell it or where in the name you use it. Good choice!

Love it. Although I too thought it was pronounced Ta-leece. Besides playing with the spelling, it sounds strong, original and sits in well with all your girls names. Congrats!

I can appreciate different names - my daughter is Ayla Teresa (pronounced - Aay-La) - however Tallis is just sooo different that I am afraid she will be teased.

Gabrielle is beautiful.

Congrats on your pregnancy - be Blessed!!!
