Eliana is a beautiful name.

---

Eliana has been my favorite girl's name for a long, long time. It just rolls off the tongue and sounds sweet and feminine, and yet not over-the-top frilly. I don't like the nickname Ellie for it, though. If I were to get to use Eliana for a daughter, she would be called by her full name.

I think Eliana is very pretty! I also think using Ellie as a nicknam for it is sad, as I don't find Ellie nice at all.
Chloe Eliana feels like two very different styles to me.
Gwyneth Eliana too. I don't really like Gwyneth or Eleanor, but Gwyneth Eleanor is better than Gwyneth Eliana.

I'm not a fan at all. It just annoys me, and has little oomph to it.

Eleanor or Elizabeth are worlds better for Ellie.

I love Eliana! It's one of my all-time faves. I couldn't use it, of course, as I'm Elena with a dd named Anna. I like Ellie as well, but it seems like kind of a waste here when she could be called Eliana. ;-)

I find it whiny and weightless -- I much prefer Elaine.

I like Eliza better. Or shold just say not like Eliana very much:(

I like it. I also like Elia on a girl.

I think this is more or less the worst name ever. There's nothing about it that ties it down, it is a long boring string of substanceless syllables. It is like a name simply designed to make everyone think it's the most beautiful name ever. It's like a photoshopped magazine cover. It is completely vacuous. Nothing is good about it. I would rather name my daughter a long list of things than Eliana.

I quite like it. I considered it for my third child. It fitted my criteria- Italian, not popular, soft and feminine sounding. But I had a boy so.....lol.
I wouldn't spell it any other way. I think any other spellings would verge on looking to creative, which I really hate. Ellyana Elyanah Elianah etc.
I really don't like the name Chloe and I don't think it fits to well with Eliana.
I'm not sure why it's showing up as a spelling mistake, that is the correct spelling and the name is in the database...so??? Not sure.
NN that might work:
Elle
Ellie
Liana
Ana
Lia
