I was super surprised to see some of these names (as a non Finnish person)

I never knew they had so many double vowel starting names.

I would names my kids Ella Aino & Leo Tovio

Pihla is such a cool name. And I love Väinö! Helmi is pretty adorable too, wow yes.

Finnish names are really cool.

Aino reminds me too much of the English phrase "I know" to think of it as a name, for the most part. :-(

Otherwise, I like:

Olivia
Pihla
Lilja
Ella
&
Leo
Elias
Noel

Some of the other Finnish names I like - such as Ensio, Reijo, and Virva - I've been told are actually "old fashioned" in Finland.

I love Aino

It sounds romantically melancholy (like the meaning).
