Following names are those that both DH and I have agreed are pretty. We initially wanted to name her Thea, but thought it was getting a bit too popular these days for our tastesGrin

Carina
Thalia
Eleni

Btw, DD will grow up as a Chinese-American, so please take that into consideration. I'm just saying this because some names have strong characteristics and our mutual friend said Eleni sounds too Greek for a person who doesn't have any Greek roots to have, which I think she has a point. Still, I'm eager to hear your opinionsWine Thank you!

Eleni - like it but probably agree a bit with what your friend said.
Thalia - she'll spend her life saying "it's Thalia not Talia"... (or the other way round)
Carina - quite like this. Probably prefer Katrina or Cara but very inoffensive.

Thalia is really pretty - one of my favourite names at the moment
Eleni - again, lovely
Carina - nice but wouldn’t be my choice

Thalia is cool.

Eleni will get lost in a sea of Ella/Ellie/Eleanor, but is pretty.

Carina - a bit meh.

I like Thalia, not so keen on eleni
If Carina is pronounced Ca-reen-a then I really like it

Icklepup · 28/02/2019 20:02

Eleni is lovely!

MondeoFan · 28/02/2019 19:54

Thalia is lovely

Carina is bloomin awful

Rainsunwindhail · 28/02/2019 19:53

Carenza instead of Carina?

MamaDane · 28/02/2019 19:48

Thalia is lovely

Cyberworrier · 28/02/2019 19:46

Love Thalia- I like what I think is the normal pronunciation Tahl- i ah. Also met someone who pronounced it Ta Leah.

Carina. Don't like it.
Eleni. Gorgeous.
Thalia. If its Tally-er I love it. Don't like Th-al-ier

I really like Thalia and Eleni, I think both were on my long list! Not mad on Carina though. Think I'd maybe just rank Thalia top, but not by much!
