Elan

I really like this name, the way it looks and sounds. I think it has a bit of a fantasy feel to it, would totally fit on some kind of mythical princess or something. I know that this name has very varied origins and can be used for either sex depending where in the world you are, but personally I've heard about it most often as a Welsh name, being a Welsh language learner myself. Therefore as a masculine name it feels a tad bit effeminate to me. I think Elan would be very usable in a primarily English-speaking place since it's so easy to spell and pronounce, but if I were to use it myself and lived in an English-speaking country I think I'd be a bit worried that people would just assume it's Ellen.
