Aluna?

I just, like 15 minutes ago, discovered the name [name_f]Aluna[/name_f] and I am IN LOVE. it has my beloved [name_f]Luna[/name_f], but it’s not so popular. I just love it. and I’m wondering what you guys think of it? what middle would you give [name_f]Aluna[/name_f] (I think [name_f]Aluna[/name_f] [name_f]Lucy[/name_f] [name_f]Mae[/name_f] nn [name_f]Lulu[/name_f] would be cute)? what would you name her siblings?

I can see the appeal. The similarity with [name_f]Luna[/name_f] and [name_m]Al[/name_m]- names and it’s gentle sound are interesting. Unfortunately, it means female student in my language (Portuguese). For that reason, I can’t see it as a given name. Perhaps you would also like [name_f]Alura[/name_f]?
The middle names [name_f]Lucy[/name_f] [name_f]Mae[/name_f] are lovely and [name_f]Lulu[/name_f] is an adorable nickname.

my cousins psycho ex-girlfriend is [name_f]Alura[/name_f] so it’s off the table. also I’m from a english speaking country so I don’t think it’s a huge deal.

[name_f]Aluna[/name_f] is really cute! I really like [name_f]Aluna[/name_f] [name_f]Lucy[/name_f] [name_f]Mae[/name_f] nn [name_f]Lulu[/name_f].

[name_f]Aluna[/name_f] is pretty. I don’t mind [name_f]Aluna[/name_f] [name_f]Lucy[/name_f] [name_f]Mae[/name_f], but find the Aluna [name_f]Lu[/name_f]cy a bit repetitive for my tastes - might not be an issue for others though.

I’d consider middles:

[name_f]Aluna[/name_f] [name_f]Sophie[/name_f] [name_f]Mae[/name_f]
[name_f]Aluna[/name_f] [name_f]Jade[/name_f] [name_f]Isla[/name_f]
[name_f]Aluna[/name_f] [name_f]Kate[/name_f] [name_f]Margot[/name_f] / [name_f]Aluna[/name_f] [name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Kate[/name_f]
[name_f]Aluna[/name_f] [name_f]Romy[/name_f] [name_f]Pearl[/name_f]
[name_f]Aluna[/name_f] [name_f]Frances[/name_f] [name_f]Claire[/name_f]
[name_f]Aluna[/name_f] [name_f]Daphne[/name_f] [name_f]Mae[/name_f] / [name_f]Aluna[/name_f] [name_f]Mae[/name_f] [name_f]Daphne[/name_f]

Siblings:

[name_f]Aluna[/name_f] and…

I have the double [name_f]Lu[/name_f] sound to get the nn [name_f]Lulu[/name_f]

[name_f]Aluna[/name_f] [name_f]Sophie[/name_f] [name_f]Mae[/name_f], [name_f]Aluna[/name_f] [name_f]Frances[/name_f] [name_f]Claire[/name_f], and [name_f]Aluna[/name_f] [name_f]Daphne[/name_f] [name_f]Mae[/name_f] are cute and I like [name_f]Saffron[/name_f], [name_f]Carmel[/name_f], and [name_f]Talia[/name_f] for sister names

ah okay - that makes sense! I think [name_f]Lulu[/name_f] works for for just [name_f]Aluna[/name_f], but I’m coming round to [name_f]Aluna[/name_f] [name_f]Lucy[/name_f] - it does sound kind of light and bubbly

I thought about that, but it feels a little to childish unless there is another [name_f]Lu[/name_f] in the middle spot

It’s pretty, I do prefer the similar Aluma and its autumnal meaning :blush:
