A few days ago I heard the name Elysiana/Elisiana, pronounced [name_f]El[/name_f]-lees-ee-ah-na and I fell in love. However, now I’m worrying it’s too many syllables or too frilly. I love the name [name_f]Elise[/name_f]/[name_f]Elisa[/name_f] and the “ana” ending of names, but does this name work?
It’s a bit too frilly for me, but I do really like [name_f]Elysia[/name_f] and its linguistic ties to Elysium/[name_f]Elysee[/name_f] etc.
It feels excessive to me. I would stick to [name_f]Elise[/name_f], [name_f]Eliza[/name_f], or [name_f]Elysia[/name_f].
It’s pretty but definitely a loonnggg name. It’s a lot to say and most likely would end up with a nn. It’s just a little much for my taste.
[name_u]Love[/name_u] [name_f]Elysia[/name_f]! The longer Elysiana is beautiful also, and would give more nn options in the long run.
I like just [name_f]Elysia[/name_f] best though
I love frilly names, but Elysiana/Elisiana is a bit too much, sorry. It sounds like you deliberately took a shorter name and made it longer and fancier-sounding. [name_f]Elysia[/name_f] is lovely though.
Maybe you can use it in all its frilly glory as a middle name.
I think that Elysiana is a bit too frilly and over the top. My general rule is no more than four syllables. I really love the more practical [name_f]Elysia[/name_f].
My mom’s coworker is named Elisiana (or Eliziana? I don’t remember), she’s in her fifties now. [name_m]Long[/name_m] names enging in [name_f]Ina[/name_f]/ [name_f]Ino[/name_f] or [name_f]Ana[/name_f]/ Ano are quite common where I live, so it doesn’t feel frilly at all to me. It’s… Normal. I don’t see any reason for Elisiana to be moved to the middle spot: it is not embarrassing or inappropriate and it sounds like an actual name.
It definitely has a lot of syllables and is super frilly, but I don’t think that’s a bad thing! I think Elysiana (I much prefer that spelling) is beautiful. If it seems like a lot of name to use all the time, there are a ton of nicknames you could use: [name_f]Ellie[/name_f], [name_f]Ella[/name_f], [name_u]Lisa[/name_u], [name_f]Ana[/name_f], [name_f]Annie[/name_f], etc. There’s also the similar name Lysiane, which I encountered once in a book and thought was gorgeous.
Definitely Elisiana!
