How do you pronounce Aine?

It's pronounced Ahn-ya, and it's not the Gaelic version of Anne/Ann, although many use it as that. It's actually a very old Irish name meaning 'radiance, brilliance'.:)


Astrid *is* very pretty, too!

I voted for Aine Elizabeth. I just love the name Aine/Anya. I must say that Elizabeth Scarlett (and I don't especially like the name Scarlett) really struck me. I think Scarlett sort of gives Elizabeth a little extra zing!

I voted for Vivien Elisabeth, I think it's not only gorgeous but very classy and carries quite well on an adult woman. I'd've voted for Stella (Since I'm still totally in love with the name) but it just doesn't flow well with Elisabeth as a middle, to me. Marie's about the only one it does flow with, but Marie to me is tired as a middle. Maybe a different Mary variant? Stella Maren, Stella Mariel, Stella Marinda, Stella Marisol.

You really can't go wrong with any of your combo's though. :)

Good Luck!

JMHO, as always

I can't pick! I like all of your choices with the possible exception of Stella Elizabeth...that one doesn't flow as well.

I am really having a hard time voting. I love Georgia, Stella, Vivien, and Aine so much, and the mns Scarlett and Elizabeth are my favorites. I know that wasn't much help, but just thought I'd let you know.

Good Luck!!

You have a wonderful, beautiful assortment of choices!


I had a hard time deciding!!!


I love Georgia Leah and Vivien Elisabeth--I think they are both beautiful.


I also like Aine, and think it has such a pretty pronunciation, but I always have to be aware of the pronunciation...and that makes me think you might be correctly people a lot on how to say it. It's a shame, but I can't help but think that most English-speaking people will see this name as Ay-n until corrected. But Ahn-ya is just beautiful!


I like the name Stella a lot, but agree w/pp that another mn might go better with it.


I do like Astrid, but it's been taking a bit to grow on me. I

Wow! You are all super helpful -- a couple of explanations on my part...

I went with Phoebe Marie Elizabeth because I do like Phoebe and its meaning (brilliant, shining), but our last name starts with E., and if I went with Phoebe Elizabeth (which I think sounds nice), her initials would be PEE. So I threw Marie in there as an idea, since MIL's name is Mary. Also, I wasn't sure on Stella Elizabeth either...does Stella Leigh (that's my mn) sound better? Thanks to all, and I appreciate your help!!!

I voted for Georgia Leigh, but I wish I could vote for more than one! I love a lot of your names... Vivien is beautiful as well, and I had a hard time between this and Georgia, but in the end was swayed b/c Elizabeth may be a tad too long for Vivien. MAY. Not definite. I also love Stella and adore Elizabeth Scarlett.

Good choices!
