DH was a big fan of Warhammer as a teenager and has just found his old books at his parents house during a clear out. He's decided he likes the name Ellaria for our baby. I'm not 100% against it.

However, how would you pronounce it? How would you spell it? What do you think? Have the hormones and lack of decision making stress finally gone to my head?

Ellaria (eh-lehr-ree-ah) or (eh-la-ree-ah)?

Are there variations of the spelling? Is this a real name? I'm loving Aria as a nn.

Would you pair up any middle names with it?

It’s also a name in Game of Thrones (just in case that would put you off). I think it’s a gorgeous name!

I would read it as Ell-ah-ree-a.

PonyPals · 03/07/2018 13:14

I guess I would pronounce it as Malaria.... just without the M

I'd say Eh-LAH-ree-ah , it's a lovely name.
