    Probably not going to be a popular answer, but I dont really like these names. Erin is a great name, Marie and Rose are good for first names. Leilani is good if you're in or from Hawaii, and it's pronounced Lay-lawn-ee. If you cant figure out how to pronounce it, you stand a high likelihood of your daughter meeting other people who cant pronounce it and/or spell it. Heaven is rather trash, I'm sorry. And Violet is too harsh. I much prefer Viola.

    Instead of Heaven, what about Celeste?

    Hi Mariee

    First of all, I would pronounce Leilani with a "Lay" first syllable.

    The single most important thing that you must do when naming your triplets is to go with a name that feels right in your heart for each of them. Assuming you are the mother, you will have formed an amazingly intimate bond with each of your three girls whilst they were growing inside you. You must trust this bond to provide you the names for your precious children.

    Check out the free report available from the sidebar on the right of the website http://whatnamesmean.net/ It talks about the importance of naming your child right and the website also gives amazing insight into what various names mean.

    All the very best for your pregnancy!

    Omigod. It's perfect. Names from heaven. (hehe)

    Leilani is pronounced Lay-luh-nee

    All of these names are really pretty! I think it's pronounced with a lay. I'm not really sure, though. I love the name Erin but, I honestly don't think Violet goes good with it. If you said it out loud it doesn't really flow that good. It's pretty, though. Hope I helped :)

    I would pronounce Leilani 'LEE-lahn-ee'. I think that your names are beautiful! =)
