Alana
I really, really dislike the male name Alan, but I find I love the name Alana. That is my favorite way to spell it, also - I'm not too enamored of Alannah or any of the other variations, although they are nice enough, I prefer just Alana.
Do you like the name? Any combo ideas? Also, what would be some good names to match it in a sibset? I know a beautiful girl named Alana whose little brother is Liam and I think that's cute.
WDYT?

I like it. I wouldn't use it because my father has negative associations with the name "Alan", and it's really too similar. I can't remember of it was Alana or Alanna and I'm too lazy to check, but this is the herione of a Tamora Peirce series that I loved in middle school.
I like Liam, too. =D
hm...middle names.
Alana Rose
Alana Mary-Kate
Alana Jewel
...eh. I don't really like any of those, but they're my best shots.

I don't like Alan as a first name either, but I have come to like it as a middle name but only spelled Allen because it's a family name.
