Are these truly terrible names?

[kiylahskies]

Hello . Me and DH have decided on two names for our DD when she arrives 1)Leilani (pronounced Lay-larn-ee, not sure how we're going to spell that yet) meaning: Heavenly flowers. And 2) Eyanah (pronounced Ay-yah-nah) meaning: educated/ a pretty flower.
MIL hates them both and says she'll cringe every time she has to call her grand daughter. One of DH's friends gave us a bit of a face when we told him. Are these names really that bad/ which one do you prefer?
Thank you so much!

I don't like them, sorry OP.

I think they are pretentious and awkward.

& a nuisance to have to spell your name and tell people how to pronounce it every time you make an appointment or a phone call. Don't do that to your daughter

I am very surprised so many people have never heard the name Leilani. It's a Hawaiian name that is used all over the English speaking world.

Very surprised at the other examples of ignorance of other cultures too. Eoin is an Irish name - you know, from the island next door...

LOL @ predictions of mispronunciation - this only happens when you meet someone really thick, or ignorant.
Everyone else will manage just fine.

Don't pander to the ignorant, OP.
It only encourages them.

Under no circumstances should you change your mind because of your rude MIL either.

The names are lovely.
