Opinions on the names Myla and Morleo?

My wife is 3 months along in her pregnancy now and in discussing potential names, she had recommended Myla in the event that it is a girl and Morleo if it is a boy. Personally, I find Myla to be a very pretty name and not one that I've heard before, though I am unsure about Morleo; my wife is European and an adamant soccer fan, and Archimede Morleo is her favorite player. I was simply looking for some unbiased opinions on these names. Also, our last name is Baxter if that helps. Thanks in advance :)

Myla is a really good name, it is my name. But other than that it great, and Myla Baxter sounds great.

As for Morleo, I have never heard of that name. It's not one of my favorite personally, but Morleo Baxter doesn't sound that bad.

I don't like Myla. It sounds very similar to Miley, and doesn't really sound like a proper name. I guess it's cute for a baby.

Morleo... It's ok. I'd sooner see something like Morten.

I really like Myla - we are having a boy buy we had Myla Arianna as one of out top three girl names. I'm nor sold on Marleo however if you both like it I'd say go for it!

Myla is a pretty name; I agree. I don't think I've heard it before either, but it seems to be a form of Mila or Miles. I don't know if you're doing middle names as well, but Myla Baxter sounds very nice. :)

I've never seen Morleo before either, though it's only one letter off from Morley. Could be shortened to Leo. I feel it would make a nice middle name, though Morleo Baxter (aka Leo Baxter?) doesn't sound too bad.
