Re: how do you pronounce
in reply to a message by Lily
Alana is a-LAY-na for me, but only because I know an Alana who pronounces it as such.
Alanna and Alannah are both a-LAN-na. I don't know anyone with this name.
If it's pronounced a-LAN-na, I'd spell it Alanna. If it's pronounced a-LAY-na, my default spelling is Alaina. I'm not particularly fond of the name, as it doesn't have a lot of depth to it (i.e., purely "pretty" and not really historic or anything), but it sounds nice, I guess. Very blah.
