Alternatives for Elowen

Girl Names

[name_m]Hi[/name_m] all,

I really like the name [name_f]Elowen[/name_f] for a girl, but my husband feels the pronunciation is to debatable (el-[name_u]Owen[/name_u] or Elo-wen). [name_f]Do[/name_f] you know of any nice alternatives that have the same atmosphere and length but more straightforward pronunciation

Thanks!!!
