[name_m]Hi[/name_m]!
As I’ve said in Earlier posts, I’m changing my nickname. I’m posting about each possibility seperatly, so today it is [name_f]Lana[/name_f] :slight_smile:
Could [name_f]Lana[/name_f] be a nickname for [name_f]Eleanor[/name_f]? Please imagine [name_f]Lana[/name_f] said in a British accent (lar-nah) :smiley:
Is it attached enough? What sort of person comes into your mind when you think of [name_f]Lana[/name_f]?
Thank you
[name_f]Ellie[/name_f] xx

I don’t think it’s too far fetched, but it wouldn’t be my first choice as a nn for [name_f]Eleanor[/name_f]. I’m not a huge fan of the sound of [name_f]Lana[/name_f], but I’m also from the southern US and am having a hard time hearing it in my head in the British accent.

I think so :slight_smile:

I think [name_f]Lena[/name_f] is more intuitive nn. Prefer [name_f]Lena[/name_f] over [name_f]Lana[/name_f].
