Me and partner discussing girls name and the following two have been put in the mix;

Astrid Aliana
Astrid Esme

Is it slightly too out there? We already have a Jenna which we love her name as it isnt very common.

Astrid Aline flows nicely. Middle names with ‘a’ on the end make it all sound a bit fussy to me.

Astrid Elise
Astrid Eponine
Astrid Anaïs
Astrid Ellen

I would not use Astrid with Alianna, to many As. Whatever you do , do not lumber a child with a name nobody can spell of pronounce.
Astrid is ok it's becoming more common so not too out there.

Alena I would pronounce as Al-ay-na. I think you need to spell it Alina to get the pronunciation you want. Astrid is fine. I think Astrid Alina is fine too. Nothing wrong with Astrid Geraldine either/.

Aliana wouldn't be pronounced Alina - it would be said like 'A-lee-ar-na' or 'A-lee-anna'. I don't like it. It is too close to 'alien' and it is too A heavy with Adrid.

Astrid is amazing and I like it with Alina (spelt like this).

(Astrid, not Adrid Blush)

Thank you for all your replies! I think we have decided to go with Astrid Alina if it's a girl Grin
