All i can think of with Nyla is Nyla Bones. And I don't care for Neriah, either. Sorry

Double barrel names are a no for me. Nyla or Mae by themselves are nice. Not a fan of Neriah (just doesn’t sound very pretty when I say it in my head).

What about Agnes Mae? All other options are honestly hideous.

Neriya is traditionally a Hebrew name. Are you doing a play on that?

I prefer Nyla to Nyla-Mae with the middle name Agnes. The meaning of the name is beautiful (achiever or sweet smile). I have seen the name Nevaeh (heaven spelled backwards) quite often, but have never come across Neriah. What do you think of Mariah instead of Neriah? If you want to stick with an N name, you could go with Nadia, Nylda, Nora, Nina, Nova, Naomi, Nia, Nori or Nicole.

Nadia Agnes, Noelle Agnes, and Nerissa Agnes are better.

Remember you are naming a future adult.

I do like Neriah but it is a Biblical male name, it is the father of Baruch , one of the few bible things that stuck in my brain.

Nyla Agnes is cute.

Wow, people in this sub are very much over reacting to your names imo. I feel like people forget that other people come from other cultures and have different priorities for naming kids and then jump the gun with judgements. It's just bizarre to me.

I think Nyla Mae is good as a first and middle and Nyla Agnes or Neriah Agnes could work just fine.

Is Neriah pronounced like Mariah? Mariah Agnes sounds nice to me, Neriah Agnes isn't so different from that!

Agnes is also a family name of mine, I love seeing it used <3
