Anais, Ines and Luna are nice. Not keen on any of the others.

17caterpillars1mouse · 23/07/2019 13:59

I like Ines and Viviana. Viviana is my favourite, also like Vivi or Viv as a nn

Don't pick a name that needs a phonetical explanation beside it. You are setting your dd up for a lifetime of having to do this.

RoseMartha · 23/07/2019 14:30

Liliana and Savannah

ladyisabelle · 23/07/2019 14:38

I like Ines, Valentina, and Aurora...any of the ones that included a pronunciation guide are probably just setting her up for confusion. Even with the explanation I’m not sure how you’re pronouncing them

LadyMonicaBaddingham · 23/07/2019 14:48

Liliana - Lillian or Lily much nicer!
Savannah - boring
Ines - trying waaay too hard
Alaïa - ugh, why?
Anais - trashy
Aurora - Disney twee
Amalia - Did you misspell Amelia?
Amor - not a word, let alone a name
Valentina - prissy and pretentious
Viviana - Vivian/Vivienne instead?
Luna - Harry Potter associations...

lady Amor is a word it means love. You may not much like it as a girls name, I don't think I really do, but it is definitely a real word.
The OP talked about using Spanish names in her post.

I love Valentina and Luna! Not keen on the others.

PRichardson · 23/07/2019 16:22

Auora. Not keen on the rest but whatever you and your partner like is all that matters x

MikeUniformMike · 23/07/2019 16:23

-Liliana - not keen, too long and frilly
-Savannah - ok but Sav.
-Ines - nice
-Alaïa (ala-EE-ah) - Have you thought of Shanelle. Armani etc
-Anais (an-I-is)- again not keen. Anaya is nicer.
-Aurora - Too many Rs
-Amalia (am-ah-lee-ah) - Nice but too similar to Amelia?
-Amor - Just no
-Valentina - Val
-Viviana - Vivisection
-Luna - Tic

Valentina and Luna are lovely

JungtheForeman · 23/07/2019 19:17

I like Ines, Aurora and Amalia

nothingtowearever · 23/07/2019 19:26

I actually really like Amor. I used to love Amalia but I've gone off it now

BendydickCuminsnatch · 23/07/2019 19:30

I loved the name Anaïs when I was a dreamy teen. In reality the horrific mispronounciation to ‘Anay’ is more than enough to put me off sadly!

I quite like your list overall and know how to pronounce them all upon first sight. I love Valentina an Viviana - Vivi is a gorgeous nickname.

TatianaLarina · 23/07/2019 21:10

Ines - trying waaay too hard

?? Trying hard to do what?

Half Spanish mother considers popular Spanish name.
