Eliana?

[Sarieee]

This is on my list too, but it's just interesting to know what people think! :)

It's very pretty, a little on the frilly side but a nice enough name.

Lovely name ... two of my friends share this name ... both Jewish .

Each to their own, but I'm not a huge fan. In my opinion, it sounds rather americanised, and a bit try-hard. Overly frilly I think, not very professional. Depends on what you're going for I suppose

I know an Eliana. She's an attractive, very strong and sassy musician in her 70s. Also Jewish.

Beautiful name!

I know a fantastic (very professional, senior lawyer) Eliana.

I find the idea that 'frilly' names aren't professional somewhat misogynistic.

I know one who has French parents. She goes by Ellie mostly. Shame she’s the most obnoxious, badly mannered child I know but the name is pretty!

I think it's a very pretty name, there is one at school and every time I hear it I think how pretty it sounds. It has a lovely meaning as well if I recall correctly!

Not keen. It's just another Ellie name. I'm not keen on the -iana names, although I do like Diana.

Love it

It is really lovely. I would worry she'd have to spell it out to people all the time though.

My 19-year-old daughter has a name that is pronounced exactly like that but starts with an "I".

It's not a common name but it's a name and spelling seen in Latin America (my family is Mexican).

The name "Eliana" is heard most commonly in Italy and Romania.

Obviously, I think it's a lovely name OP.

I know a very nice one who's Italian. She's a senior academic, not frilly at all. I quite like those Italian names that come from Roman names.

Beautiful name. There’s an Eliana in DDs class and she’s a lovely child.

It's a pretty name. I know an Eliana who is Brazilian.

Lovely name. I also like Liliana

Lovely, I prefer it with an I rather than an E

Beautiful

I'm an Ellie and find it rather delicious that mumsnetters and the like are bored to death of my common name. There's something quite attractive about it. Like being a Mary in the 1800s. It gives me a sense of union and peasantry and the fact that it doesn't have roots like Mary makes it even worse (better). 😱😂
Love Eliana!

Not my cup of tea at all.

Very frilly and almost seems made up. I agree with a pp that it sounds Americanised

Reminds me a bit of Game of thrones but v pretty (and not a bad GOT character!)

I know three. One is 18, one 15 and one 5.
I'm not a huge fan but it's ok.

Absolutely love it. I love any 'arna' names.

Don't like it. Feels like it has too many syllables and there's the potential for it to turn into Ellie. Apologies to pp but Ellie is one of the most generic, unimaginative names out there atm!

I like it, not keen on the nn tho.
I thought it was Spanish?
