Just so you know, Orca is the scientific name for killer whales - not the best reference. Also, it sounds like orcs (? spelling) in Lord of the Rings - definitely not a good reference! Personally I wouldn’t use it. How about...
Kennadie Charlotte
Kennadie Eve
Kennadie Eden (favourite)
Kennadie Bella
Kennadie Olive
GL!

Please do her a favor and spell her name Kennedy. The alternative spelling might look cool and edgy to you, but it won’t be so nice when she’s older and has to constantly spell, respell and correct others. But no matter how you spell it, get used to people telling you it’s a last name.

Completely agree with the first poster. You would basically be calling your daughter Kennadie Killer Whale

I think that if you and your husband want to give your daughter Orca as a middle name then it’s wonderful because remember that this is your baby and you can name her whatever you please!
Middle names are rarely used and are a perfect place for names that are more unusual (i.e. Orca).
I think that Kennadie Orca is lovely and unique. But what is important is that you love it!

If she is overweight at all, I’d anticipate a lot of hurtful whale jokes being made. I also agree with the Kennedy spelling.

What about the Irish name Orla? It’s very similar but doesn’t throw up the image of a killer whale in people’s minds like Orca does.

My first thought when I saw Orca was of a killer whale. However, if that doesn’t bother you, then the name itself, without the connotation, doesn’t sound bad as a combination.
