Axelina

[gameboyy]

WDYT of this name? I'm seriously falling for it and been considering it for the past few days. It's mostly used in Scandinavia from what I gather and I actually did meet a Swedish girl named Axelina about 10 years ago maybe.

I'm just not sure what kind of vibes it would give to other people? I love the name Alexandra but it does feel a bit meh sometimes and I think Axelina has a very similar vibe yet slightly different so I'm loving it but still having mini second thoughts.

I like Axelle. Axelina is okay to me but I prefer Axelle. The baby names board is notoriously rude. People even mock the names of existing children. I find it such poor taste.

Axelina.....I actually like it

You see,someone else on here has already read it as Alexina. That's what'll happen as Alex is common here, Axel (ina) isn't.

Go with some sort of Alex type name -maybe not Alexa though!

I like it! Like Axelle too.

You need to consider that people will shorten it though, to Axe likely? And she'll be constantly correcting people, no not Max, Axe!

Axelina makes me think of something relating to a mechanics workshop.

How about Adelina?

I personally don’t like it, but I don’t see anything necessarily wrong with it as such. Axelle is prettier

No...

What's with all the 'you must hate your child' comments lately?
What an unoriginal and stupid thing to say. Not my taste, OP but that doesn't mean I assume you hate your child

Instantly hated it.

But I’ve been repeating it over, whilst reading the thread, and it’s really growing on me.

I always wonder why people share names before they have given it to a child though because there is always a danger that someone will ruin the name for you. Much harder for people to criticise once you have named your baby.

Errrrmmmm 🤣🤣

Axelle is better.

Sorry...I think of Axel Rose and Angelina Ballerina from the children's books. You need to consider possible nicknames as well. "Axe" sounds odd and "Axey" even odder...
Maybe another name?

I actually like the sound of it, but If you've no connection to Sweden th en I think it would be quite hard to carry off. If that doesn't conc ern you id say go with it

Alexandra is beautiful
What about Evalina?

It's a no from me.

What about Alexandrina? Bit more interesting than Alexandra

I think it’s a really ugly name. I’d feel sorry for the child tbh.

I actually had never heard Axelle which some of the PP have suggested. I kept saying it out loud and for some reason it sounds like Excel to me. It might be my accent but it's just all I can hear when I say it 😅

Other than that, it's still a good option but I don't think it could work with the way I'm pronouncing it, unless I'm doing it wrong?

I thought Guns n Roses too
Nope

My DD is Adelina which is quite common in Romania. Would that work? Not keen on Axelina though.

Alexandrina. Sounds a little bit of a mouthful but I do like Alexandria even if it's just one less letter.

Evalina. I quite like this one but there's this artist/singer who is really popular where I'm based who is named Evaluna and it just slightly puts me off as I think they're too similar

No. How about:

Melina
Evelina
Paulina
Serafina
Lina

I'm liking Adelina though. Hadn't thought of that one but it's starting to grow on me. Thanks for that suggestion, gonna add it to the list and see if it works with our middle name options

Audrina?

Really dont like it.
It reminds me of guns and roses, something mechanical (like car axle) and something from an asterix cartoon all rolled into one.
It just a big no, sorry.
