I love all of these suggestions but unfortunately can’t use most of them due to them already being used by family (on both sides 🙈)

we seem to be coming back to Elaina the whole time, but curious to know what others think of the name?

Elaina is nice but I think I'd go for the Elena spelling with Elaina pronunciation.

Fidelma. It's totally underused these days, in my opinion.

Eilis or Ailis.

I would stick with an Irish name, something easy to pronounce

I like Elaina but only with the spelling of Elena. And LOVE Hazel, very pretty. Think Maeve goes well too.

Rowen32 · 16/02/2023 14:01

I think I'd have to go with an Irish name.. If not Elena over Elaina definitely, Elaina doesn't look great..
