I've really been feeling the love for Regan (long e sound) lately. Reagan is too presidential and doesn't do much for me. Morgana is pretty. Still, I'm reminded of the word 'morgue.' Not sure I could ever really like it. Inga is cute though NMS. As a trio, Regan and Morgana seem to gel while Inga is the odd one out.

Inga is so stereotypically Swedish, the "Inga from Sweden" stereotype...although it's not a very common name and definitely not poular today, maybe because it can also mean "nobody" (in plural form). I don't like it, although as a child I knew a very sweet old lady called Inga.

Reagan - ugh. Not my favorite president. Don't like Regan either, it reminds me of being scared stiff after watching The Exorcist.

---

Morgana - it sounds pretty, but also a bit...sinister.

---

Sorry! :(

Like Morgana, Inga sounds whiny, Raegan reminds me either of the horrible King Lear character or of the president. They sound a bit cluncky together.

Inga makes me think of blonde comedy maids with braids - like Helga, it's one of those names Scandinavian characters are called in old films, but never in real life. If I throw that out of the window though, I rather like it; simple and short, pleasant sound, decent historical cred.
Morgana is a bit frilly for me, but it's not bad. I like Mor as a name element.
Reagan is nmsaaaaaa. Regan does have Shakespeare on its side, but it still sounds too much like a surname.

Inga isn't really my style and it reminds me a lot of Olga which I'm not really crazy about. It makes me think of Hey Arnold, with Olga and her sister, lol.

I looooooove Reagan. I need to find a way to use it for a character or something because it's one of those kind of spunky but tomboyish names that I adore. I prefer Reagan to look at, but my fingers want to type Regan.

---

Morgana is nice, a little over the top for me to really want to use. But I do like, it's very whimiscal and mischievous.

I think Inge is prettier than Inga. I tend to pronounce them differently (Inga = Ing-uh like singer without the S and R, Inge = Ing-guh, more distinct G). Inge is nifty although nms.

---

Reagan is too Ronnie for me and I hear Ray Gun. But I like Regan "REE-gən," which suggests the word regal just vaguely enough to please me.

---

Morgana is too luxuriant for my taste but I think it's likeable.

---

As a group they are full of contrasts.

I adore Inga, but I don't care for Reagan and Morgana. Also, whereas Reagan and Morgana complement one another, Inga seems dissonant.

Inga - It feels funny in my throat when I say it.
Reagan - I think I like REE-gen better. But they are both okay.
Morgana - not bad. I prefer Morgan, but Morgana is okay too.

I can't make my mind up about Inga; I want to like it it something about it seems a bit incomplete. How about Ingrid or even Sigrid?

---

Morgana is nice. How do you feel about Morwenna?

---

Reagan is not my style whatsoever.

Inga is lovely. I'm quite fond of it. And I could get behind Morgana too. It's not typically a name I'd go for, but I'd be interested to see what combos it appeared in.
I don't care for Reagan at all. And it doesn't seem to go with the others at all. It's ambiguous where the others are feminine and dull where the others are charming.

I love Morgana! It's an absolute favourite.
Inga is sweet. I really like it as a short form of Ingrid.
Reagan I'm not fond of, I don't mind (though I don't particularly love) the sound or spelling but I associate it with the president, and therefore trickle down economics. I also find that it's a little too trendy for me currently.
