STUMPED ON GIRL NAMES!
| Mon, 08-06-2007 - 2:45pm |
My fiance' and I are stumped on girl names. For a while we loved Kailey, then we liked Leina, but now we don't like either of them. For some reason I love the name Eliana (nn Ellie) but I worry that she would get made fun of. I would like a name that can have a great nick name also. Ex. Allison - Allie- Abigail - Abbie- Madelyn -Maddie- any suggestions?


Here goes:
Elena/Alaina Juliet/te

Hi there.
Here are my thoughts:
I'm glad that you're finished w/Kailey. It's trendy, made-up, & silly for a grown-up.
Leina isn't bad, but that spelling is confusing. Any spelling of this name would lead to pronouciation problems imo.
Eliana nn Ellie is fantastic! Why would she get made fun of? It's a beautiful classic. Ellie is a lot more popular then you might think, but it's nothing to worry about w/a gorgeous full name like Eliana.
Allison, Abigail, & Madelyn are all perfectly nice. I'm really not a fan of Maddie though. There are a ton of Madisons nn Maddies running around, & it's gettnig really old. Maybe Madelyn nn Lynnie or Maisie?
Here are some more suggestions:
Annabel nn Annie
Annelise nn Annie
Alexandra nn Allie or Lexie
Caitlin nn Cate/Catie
Callista nn Callie
Cecelia nn Cece/Celie
Celia nn Cece/Celie
Eva nn Evie
Genevieve nn Ginny
Isabel nn Izzy
Josephine nn Josie
Lydia nn Lydie
Lillian nn Lilly
Olivia nn Livie
Rose nn Rosie
Sophia nn Sophie
Sylvia nn Sylvie
Tessa nn Tess
Vivian nn Vivi
Hope this helps!
How about:
Alanna

Good luck,

I think Iliana Vega sounds really nice together. You could call her Ili Vega! I don't know if you have any nice family names to use as a middle name, but what about...
Iliana Claire Vega
Iliana Callie Vega
Iliana Chelsea Vega
Iliana Elisabeth Vega
Iliana Marissa Mega
Good Luck,
Tracy
