Alana: opinions please!

[abitlikemollflanders]

Hi,
Still in search of a girl's name that we both love.
I love Alana, husband isn't sure.
Any opinions on here?
Thanks x

I love it

I really like it. I used to know a lovely little girl with the same name

I really like it too, very pretty.

Thanks for replying. I don't know any children of that name but read it in a baby book and really liked it.

Would you think of it as an obviously Irish name?

I like it, my friend has Allanah as one of her dc's middle names. I have an Elana which is similar :)

I love it dh doesn't..

Lovely :)

Love it!

I prefer the spelling Allanah but yes it is a lovely name :)

Follow it with something like Rose

Alana Rose just sounds beautiful

Smoggi my dd2 is Elana-Rose, we must have similar taste

Love it -
wouldn't think of it as particularly Irish though - isn't
it the feminine form of Alan?

Would you pronounce it Al-ann-a or Al-ar-na...be prepared
for it to be pronounced the other way, which ever you choose!

Love it I prefer it spelt this way Alannah. Its a old german name means Precious which is a lovely meaning.

Love it.

I have a friend called Alannah and have always considered it a very pretty name.
it is very similar to my DD too.
