Romilly, Juno or Elke?

[Vavaroomcoom]

I've narrowed it down to these three and love them all. Which do you like best?

Juno

Juno is a female Roman goddess

No need for the I clearly don't know that!

Romilly

Romilly by far.

Love the name Romilly.
Not keen on Juno or Elke

Elke.

And it's pronounced Elkuh, not Elk or Elkeee.

Isn't Elke some sort of moose ? 🤔I immediately thought of a huge animal when I read it. Sorry

Juno is nice. Not keen on Romily. I'm sure it's a real name but sounds made up to me

That would be elk^.
I like them all! Slightly prefer Romilly and Elke to Juno.

That would be elk

Still the same thing to me 🤷‍♂️ wouldn't know how to pronounce it

Elke is lovely as you have a German surname. I'd go for that one

They are all really nice names.

Romilly I love

Love Romilly.

I have a German friend named Elke pronounced Elka , she is in her 70s. I quite like the name but my favourite of those three is Romilly.

Romilly or Juno. Really dislike Elke.

I have a Romilly. We get lots of compliments, though most people have not come across it and can be a little flummoxed. It is a lot of name, for sure... I once read on here that someone thought it sounded like an army general sometimes I do think we should have gone with something a bit more mainstream! But I still love it.

I like Juno too! Not sure about Elke.

Just so you know, most British people will pronounce Elke as either 'Elky', 'Elkay' or 'Elk'. The schwa sound at the end doesn't seem to be an option to them.

Juno

Romilly is pretty and classic with a bohemian whiff and I think it is lovely.
Juno is fun easy to spell and pronounce and to me doesn't label your DD in any way but isn't my personal preference.
I am not sure whether Elke is Elkee ( actress) or Elkuh ( more European) , either way it is growing on me and I quite like it.

@hipstercat, you cannot possibly know that ‘most British people will pronounce’ the name, or any name, either correctly or incorrectly. Very fleeting statement. Ridiculous.

I like all three names! Not very helpful. All of them easy to pronounce.

Elke is by far my favourite, but living in the UK I might spell it Elka (which is an established variant) to avoid the pronunciation problems.

@Sessy I do know I'm afraid, because my name has the same type of ending. Sorry, should have made that clear but I hesitated to 'out' myself. I get these three variants (most frequently the -ee), practically never the schwa pronunciation. It bothers me a bit because I think they sound quite silly, but of course other people may not care!
