ileana is much better as a similar I starting name.

ileana looks like a jumble of vowels and it disappears into the Eliana type names

When I was a child I had a doll called Ida that my brother brought back from Sweden. Nobody here had ever heard of the name but I always loved it.

Makes me think of the operetta Princess Ida! If you got it from g&s, i prefer Iolanthe. Or Phoebe, Melissa, Leila, Zara, Lisa, Aline, Celia, Mabel, Elsie etc are all g&s characters.

My 23 yr old dd has a best friend called Ida who is awesome so I say thumbs up.

I really like it. Go for it! I don’t find it harsh at all, but then I have an Isaac so maybe I just like that sound.
