I love the name Eleanor for a girls name, I've asked opinions most people say it's nice but some say they associate it with the older generation. What are some other potential names I could use that sound similar or have a similar vibe (Elena, Eliana, Alana, Eliza I'm not sure)

Just use Eleanor and don't ask for opinions. It's lovely and not as old fashioned sounding as quite a few of the popular granny names around at the moment.

Ellen/Elaine - I think it's due comeback already, but might be too old still
