please help us choose - Welsh name shortlist

[beachydays]

Hi, we'd be glad to know which of our 2 shortlist names you prefer. DD2 coming in 2 weeks. It's been a loooong journey getting to these 2 names. We'd like some extra input to help us make the final decision. DD1 nn is Sunny.

Thank you

Elin (Elle-in)

Mali (Mally)

Elin. It's beautiful.

Elvin is great but I have an Eleri so may be biased.

Mali and Sunny may be too much 'EE' together (I have this problem too as that's the sound my daughter's name ends in and I am drawn to ee sounding names)

So I would go with Elin (and not shorten it to Eli/Ellie)

I love mali

Both pretty but Elin is my favourite. Simple, strong and sophisticated. Mali feels a bit more childish.

I think a lot of people would assume that Mali is pronounced like the country.

Elin is lovely. Mali would get mispronounced.

Elin.

Thank you for your helpful replies. Please keep them coming

oh, btw, we are in Wales, so no problem with pronunciation

I love Mali, my favourite Welsh girls name is Mabli.

Elin is just lovely !

I think as a combination, Sunny and Elin sound better together, but I'm not a fan of the name (not because of the name itself but because of previous Elins I've known) so I'd go for Mali of the two.

Elin

Elin

Elin is lovely!

Another vote for Elin. A lovely name

Elin. You might be in Wales now but she may want to leave in the future and Elin is more 'international'.

Also, I just prefer Elin!

Elin is lovely

Elin is lovely.

Mali, or Mabli. Also my favourite

Prefer Mali by miles! (Welsh speaker living in North Wales)

Elin

Mali! Too many Elin type names about right now.
