Lina, Linna and Linnéa
Lina and Linnea were the most popular names in my Lin-poll.
Nobody liked the Zulu Lindiwe ("have waited") and only one the Albanian Lindita ("the day is born"). Maybe b/c nobody knew how to pronounce Lindiwe. I don't know either but I would say "lin-DEE-weh" until corrected.But what about Linna? Linna is actually a Finnish surname ("castle") but I think that it would be fine as fn too.So which do you like best:
Lina (LEE-nah)
Linna (LINN-ah)
Linnea (Li-NEH-ah)"But it’s all right now.
I learned my lesson well.

So you got to please yourself."
