Anna, Elena, Elsa or Eva?

[Buzzybees]

These are our favourite girls names for DD1 due in June. We have a DS named Harry.

Anna - DH favourite, I do really like it and think it is a classic but maybe a bit plain?

Elena - (pronounced Ellen-ah). DH originally wanted Helena but I don't like Helena & Harry together & really dislike the nn Hells which my 2 friends called Helen get shortened to. I like Elena but think she will spend her life correcting people's pronunciation & spelling of her name.

Elsa - I have liked this for a long time, DH not so keen & MIL positively hates (could be a good reason to choose ha ha!). Also don't want people to think we're copying the princess from Disney's Frozen movie!

Eva - we both like but think it's too popular along with similar names like Ava, Evie.

What do you think?
Thanks! x

Anna and Elsa. Eliana is nice also

Ell-ai-na Elaina

I like Elsa. It's beautiful. I think Frozen might be a problem though. It's not going anywhere soon, they're doing a broadway production, the merchandising is huge and every little girl wants to be her at the moment.

None of them want to be Anna so that's still usable .

Elsa is the standout name, it's beautiful.

All lovely names in my opinion!

But Anna is definitely my favourite.

I like Anna.

What about Elna? It's a classic Nordic name that I love!

Anna or Elss

Anna - beautiful

Isn't Anna from frozen too I haven't seen it so not sure I like Elena though from the list

But it shouldn't matter any way the names existed way before the movies how else is characters from movies going to get their names :)

Anna or Annie. There are a lot of Evie's and Eva's about ( I volunteer with children in schools and guides). Elenor is nice but will be shortened to Els or Ellie. I've got an Ellie and she hates being called Els!

Elsa

Elsa is lovely but the frozen link is too strong I think. Everyone knows the character, everyone will think you've copied it if that bothers you. They'll be loads in the next couple of years I bet. Anna is pretty popular anyway so I don't think frozen will affect it too much.

Anna

Elsa - Was in ny top 3, 8 years ago but dc2 was a ds.

I love Anna too but there are 3 in my dd's class.

I have an Anna DD2 8 and an Eva DD1 10 !! Obviously both lovely names
