What do you think of this name?

We're expecting a girl in July, so it's still a while away and we have plenty of time.
We have a name in mind that you don't hear very often. You do hear the name Lymée quite a bit, spelled with a Y, which is more familiar. We're really curious what you all think. We think it's a beautiful name with a lovely sound. We'd like to have two names.
Limée Mila is the name. Pronounced Liemeej. We're still also debating the spelling Lymée, which looks a bit more chic.
Or do you have other suggestions that would go well with Limée.

    Nice name.
    You have to think of Lyme disease when the 'y' is added.
    Liemé seems like the most beautiful spelling to me.

    I've never actually heard the name before. But I think Limée sounds nicer than Lymée.

    Such a beautiful, unique name. I'd go with Limée.

    I would also do it without the y, otherwise I think of Lyme disease.

    Thanks for your reply. Personally, I think Limée looks a bit nicer than Liemé. Oh well, the pronunciation stays the same anyway, hehe.

    Thanks for your reply. That was also a reason for us to spell it with an i. It's not nice when people associate the name with something else just by looking at it. While Lyme is pronounced differently than Lymée. Oh well, then you have a lot of names that resemble something else, hehe.

    I personally find Mila more beautiful, but Lymée is a more unique name, which is why I’d go with Lymée.
    Or is Limée indeed associated with Lyme disease?

    I think Limée is sweet and also beautifully written!

    I find Mila a bit less fitting; I think Limée is much more chic and unique than Mila. But your daughter certainly won't be made fun of for it, so if you like it, go for it! And I also think the idea of two names is lovely; I'd personally go for Limée Leonor or Limée Merle, Limée Amélie, etc.! But tastes differ, right Good luck and have a healthy pregnancy!

    I'd go with Limée. I don't think Mila sounds so nice as a second name (maybe because of the 2x m). But I do find both names lovely on their own.
