I like Lina (pronounced Leena) but would prefer Lena spelling.

LanisHouseLot · 18/10/2021 14:59

Camila, but they are all nice.

Comedycook · 18/10/2021 15:00

Adriana

Blubells · 18/10/2021 15:03

Camilla

Enko · 18/10/2021 15:09

Adriana the other two are not my style at all

35andThriving · 18/10/2021 15:10

Camilla, but with the double l spelling.

Threebillygoatsgruff · 18/10/2021 15:15

Adriana

MadameOvary81 · 18/10/2021 15:27

Adriana is lovely.

I preferred it spelt Lena too, but it seems to cause confusion on pronunciation.

Do you have Spanish links? Would you pronounce Camila the Spanish way? I like it, but I also like Camilla.

JudgementalCactus · 18/10/2021 16:51

None. I like Camelia though

SummaLuvin · 18/10/2021 16:54

Camila.

Would you be pronouncing like CAM-EEE-LA or CAM-ILL-UHH? Either way it's still top for me out of your options. Maybe worth bearing in mind that I think most in the UK would assume same pronunciation as Camilla, the second way, and you may also have to deal with mis-spellings adding the second L.

DinaofCloud9 · 18/10/2021 16:56

I like Lina and Camila. I do prefer the Camilla spelling but Camila is nice too.

Cam-ee-la

I'm not in the UK and Camilla isn't at all popular where I am (neither is Camila), though I could still see people mispronouncing it.

I like Camila (Ca mee la)

RuthW · 18/10/2021 17:40

Don't like Lina but the others are lovely.

TuftyMarmoset · 18/10/2021 18:47

I would pronounce Lina as lee-na and Lena as lay-na. I don't like Adriana but Lina and Camila are nice.

Rainbowqueeen · 18/10/2021 18:48

Camilla
