WDYT of Devlyn and Palmer?

For a girl. I heard these names in a movie and I can't decide how I feel about them. What middle names would you use? And if it were a middle name, what first name would you chose?

Also, vote if you have a second? Thanks!

    I would never, never use the name Palmer for a girl. Devlyn I'm on the fence about. It sounds like too much of a made up name. It reminds me of the name "Devon Lynn". But, if I had to choose one, it would be Devlyn.

    As far as middle names go, for Palmer I would pick a girlier middle name. Palmer Mae, Palmer Annalise, Palmer Mari, Palmer Anastasia... you know, something that the girl could fall back on if she later decided she hated the name Palmer.

    For Devlyn I would stay simple. Devlyn Mae, Devlyn Rae, Devlyn Mari, Develyn Anne... something short and classic.

    I like Palmer on a boy and Devin on a girl. No Devlyn on anyone.

    Having known several girls with the name Devlyn (Devlin).... they all had the nickname of Devil.

    Devlyn Grace

    Devlin Angel (yes....ironic)

    Devlin Cole
