Honest opinions on these two names please

[GlitterPinkRubberDucky]

For a girl:

Alara (pronouced A-lar-a)
Alanya (pronounced a-lan-ya)

I like them both.

Other alternatives could be
Ayla, Aliyah, Alayna, Alina, Anaya, Amaya, Anya, Anna, Ama, Aliza, Anika, Ariana, Andrea, Adela, Arabella, Amira, Amina, Alyssa, Alannah, Lara, Lana, Lena, Tara, Cara.

Prefer Alanya.

Arianna?

I prefer Lara to Alara.
I like Alanya...but I grew up with a girl called Alana so it looks 'odd' to me (even though they're different names, just a personal thing).

I like Alara.

Prefer Lara, not sure I like either I'm afraid.

Call me boring, but what's wrong with Lara or Anya?

Unusual but why the heck not? Go for them if you like them. They're unusual, not weird.

I'd never seen either of these before but Alara is really pretty. Alanya, not so much - makes me think of "lanyard".

Alanya is a resort in Turkey.

Alaina is a made up but more proper sounding American name. Or Alaine with an a. X

Alannah/Alana is pronounced A-lah-na.
Prefer Alanya to Alara. What about just Lara?

Not really keen on either, but I prefer Alara of the two. I love Lara without the A.

ok if you have to spell out how to say,you've picked a doozey
no bad name keech (pronounced k-ech) is ever redeemed by elaborate how to say

Not a fan of either, sorry.
