Saint names - Helena, Ursula, Marina

[DaisyJoy1]

What do you like best and why?

(Helena pronounced Helen-uh)

I like them all.

Ursula is a great name.

St Ursula was a name of a local school where I grew up. So that's a no from me.
Marina is a place where boats are moored.
I prefer Helen to Helena, as there's no problem with multiple variations with pronunciation.

If the saints are important to you, I would go with Helena as St Helena mother of Constantine was a genuinely critical figure in Christianity and lots is known about her so she is easy to connect with. I think Sts Ursula and Marina are very early saints about whom little is known. But happy to be corrected! Wishing you every happiness with your new baby

I like Helena and Ursula.
I would choose Lucia personally.

Helen-ah not Helen-arrr and definitely not Helen-uh sounds rough.

I have mentioned before one of my identical twin daughters is named Ursula, obviously we love it .

I only really like Helena. I love the meaning of Ursula but can’t love it as a name. I also not keen on Marina.

Helena and Marina are lovely.

Ursula is ugly as hell. People say "you can call her Sula", as if that's any better! How is it even pronounced? Syula? Soola? Vile!
