[Opinions] Re: Elena (Ileana, Ayla)
in reply to a message by Ciarda
I LOVE Elena! It's feminine and stunning but not cutesy or trendy.
I vastly prefer Elena to Ileana and Ayla, neither of which appeal to me at all.
Ayla has an extremely trendy sound-- Kayla, Shayla, Tayla, Mikayla, etc. are all very trendy and the AY sound is in so many trendy names.
I don't think Ella and Elena are too similar, but I'd ask your sister/brother and see if he/she would mind. I wouldn't confuse it with Alaina but in some accents the names sound identical.
