Comments on "Baby names by syllable: One syllable names"

After being raised with 3 other children wil 2 syllabel names i decided for a four syllabell name but now I have changed my mind completly

I had to comment for all of those that can't see that this entire list with the exception of Gia and possibly Maeve is comprised of one syllable names.

I thought the list was helpful. After choosing a 4-syllable name for my daughter, I really wanted a short middle name. Never thought of Claire, but after seeing it on this list, I am highly considering it!

Ash, Fleur, Rain, Mare! You want someone to name their daughter a female horse. Hale- that will go over well about 4th-6th grade and any poor Lys will be trying to get people to pronounce her name correctly her entire life and Gray, a mildly depressing color. Do your child a favor and ignore this list. Even with a last name of several syllables you can do better.

Having raised four kids, I found a three-syllable minimum necessary to properly round up an errant child. Otherwise, for me, dipping into the middle name became necessary. :)

Gia, for example, has 2 syllables... It's short, but not one syllable...

All of these names are one syllable! I have no idea what everyone else is talking about.

Am I missing something? All of the names listed above are one syllable. Did they remove some names that were not?

Where did you learn to count?

I have to agree with the people who commented on the syllables. Several of these names have more than one.

Anyone else notice the "top 10" points in this article only has 8 points in it?? :-/

did the person who wrote this article know what "syllable" even meant? i counted alot of two syllable names.....

Nice to have baby names with one syllable names.

Wow this is really super one syllable names i find it. actually i am pregnancy girl. this baby names are useful and i am very happy.Thanks for the site.

Oh yeah, its better to have baby names that are one syllable names. Its easier to call out our babies and catch their attention with just one syllable names. I cant imagine how to catch my breath after shout a 3-5 syllable baby name.

I agree. Those names are NOT one syllable. I'm looking for syllable, not length.
