We’ve really been struggling to name our little girl. We’ve had [name_f]Elena[/name_f] picked out for sometime, but I don’t feel completely settled on it like I did with my other DD names.
We like both [name_f]Elena[/name_f] and [name_f]Lucia[/name_f] because they work well in both Spanish and [name_f]English[/name_f]. We are also not bothered by popularity.
Which do you prefer of the two? Middle name will be [name_f]Violet[/name_f].
Thanks in advance. 
I personally prefer [name_f]Elena[/name_f], and I think [name_f]Elena[/name_f] [name_f]Violet[/name_f] is an absolutely stunning name 
Depends how you are sayjng elena. If its [name_m]Eh[/name_m] lay na, then i defo pick [name_f]Elena[/name_f]
[name_f]Lucia[/name_f] violet doesnt really flow aswell. [name_f]Elena[/name_f] violet flows perfect and is stunning. Maybe your overthinking it
Yes, that’s how we are pronouncing it.
We pronounce [name_f]Lucia[/name_f] ‘loo-see-ah’.
Yes! I did lnow the saying of lucia but something just doesnt flow about it lucia. Maybe its the strong L sound
[name_f]Lucia[/name_f] 
I like all pronunciations of this name. Personally not a fan of the uh-lay-nuh pronunciation of [name_f]Elena[/name_f]. I like if as El-en-uh but it’s not my favourite.
[name_f]Lucia[/name_f] [name_f]Violet[/name_f] is stunning
[name_f]Elena[/name_f] [name_f]Violet[/name_f] would be my pick, it’s so lovely! Feminine but not too frilly, feels both contemporary and classic.
I don’t personally love the ‘loo-see-uh’ pn of [name_f]Lucia[/name_f], it reads as ‘loo-chee-uh’ in my head and the other way feels wrong somehow. Like a fussy version of [name_f]Lucy[/name_f] rather than a name in its own right.
Which pronunciation of [name_f]Lucia[/name_f] and [name_f]Elena[/name_f] do you use?
I think I like [name_f]Lucia[/name_f] best - it just feels brighter and sleeker!
[name_f]Lucia[/name_f] has 3 different pronunciations based on where you live. Loo-sha and loo-chee-a are tthe other two variations
I think both [name_f]Elena[/name_f] [name_f]Violet[/name_f] and [name_f]Lucia[/name_f] [name_f]Violet[/name_f] sound super cute! [name_f]Lucia[/name_f] and [name_f]Elena[/name_f] are both on our shortlist 
[name_f]My[/name_f] favorite is [name_f]Lucia[/name_f] (with the pronunciation you chose)! I think it flows well, and I can just see it getting a ton of compliments because it sounds fresh, yet still timeless and elegant 
[name_f]Elena[/name_f] [name_f]Violet[/name_f] 
[name_f]Lucia[/name_f]
[name_f]Lucia[/name_f]
[name_f]Elena[/name_f] - Eh-lay-nah. Extended Spanish family pronounce it eh-LEH-nah, which I also love.
[name_f]Lucia[/name_f] - I only like loo-See-ah.
[name_f]Elena[/name_f] [name_f]Violet[/name_f] has the better flow, I think. [name_f]Lucia[/name_f] is pretty but I prefer [name_f]Lucy[/name_f] or [name_f]Lucinda[/name_f], but that’s just me.
[name_u]Love[/name_u] [name_f]Elena[/name_f] Violet!!! 
[name_f]Elena[/name_f] [name_f]Violet[/name_f], 100 percent!
I read [name_f]Lucia[/name_f] as loo-chee-uh, and like @persephonescrown mentioned, the Loo-see-uh pronunciation does feel like a fussy version of [name_f]Lucy[/name_f].
[name_f]Lucy[/name_f] [name_f]Violet[/name_f] is also lovely, but if it’s names that work in [name_f]English[/name_f] and Spanish that you’re looking for… (not 100 percent sure on all of these, but)

But overall, I love [name_f]Elena[/name_f] [name_f]Violet[/name_f]
Team [name_f]Lucia[/name_f] !! I really like [name_f]Elena[/name_f] too but [name_f]Lucia[/name_f] just sparkles a bit more for me personally
I really love [name_f]Elena[/name_f], it feels a little less trendy and more subtle. And I love the flow of [name_f]Elena[/name_f] [name_f]Violet[/name_f]
