[Opinions] BA Cynthia Diega Raya LN
My neighbor's daughter recently gave birth a few days ago and they named her Cynthia Diega Raya. After a great grandma Cynthia, and grandpas Diego and Ray. They will call her "Raya". WDYT? I personally think it would have had better flow ss Cynthia Raya Diega, imo.Please rate my "Names I would Use" list & "Backup Favorites" list. Feel free to rate some of my other lists too if you have the time.

Severely dislike Cynthia, Diega is absolutely gorgeous, and Raya is okay-ish. If it were my name, I'd go by Diega in a heartbeat. Really a name I adore. Diego is a favorite male name of mine as well.
I prn Raya as ra-ya. Is that the correct prn? Or is it ray-a? They are nice names, individually
Raya is Ray-a
Nice honour names, the flow is ok. If they are going to use Raya they should have used it as a fn
I don't get why they would put Raya third if it was what they were gonna call her. I personally would have went with Raya Cynthia Diega.
First name should be Raya if they're going to call her Raya. Too many names ending with A in one name.
My friend Astrid's daughter, also named Astrid, is often called "Marie" because they have the same first name but different middle names.
We live in a community where it isn't uncommon to go by one's middle name as a cultural practice. Though it's usually a practice more common for men than women. Of the boys I went to school with growing up maybe 7 or 8 of them used their middle name? Something like that. If it's a girl that uses the middle name often it is because her first name is "Ann" or "Mary" after a grandma and the objective is to distinct them.
Ah, that makes sense!
