Hello All,
I am struggling to find a name for my baby girl, my mother language is Portuguese from Brazil, my husband's is Spanish from south america and we live in UK. The name Halen has a family meaning for me, it is a name that my father really wanted for a baby for when he would become a grandfather, but he passed away 6 years ago, will never get to meet his grandchildren.
In Brazil Halen is not an usual name but I grew to like it because it is unique and I like the sound of it, as well that it is short and unisex.
In Portuguese we pronounce HÉ‘len and not (Haylen), the A is well pronounced.
However through some research I found that most people think of Van Halen when they see the name Halen. Is this a bad thing? (considering they are an old band)
- Can you please give me your honest opinion about the name Halen for a baby girl?
- and I appreciate any suggestions too with the specifications: short name, not very popular or unique, that sounds good in Portuguese, Spanish and English - complicated I know!!!
My son's name is Gael which I feel meets the spec above :-)
Thank you all.
Marjane
