Hey all!
I love the sound of the name [name_f]Liana[/name_f]. My problem is that it still sounds a little… loose to me. I would be so grateful for any ideas on how to make it sound a little stronger or more powerful. What would you think?
I have a friend called [name_f]Lianna[/name_f], which is a variation of [name_f]Liana[/name_f]. She pronounces her name like ‘[name_u]Lee[/name_u]-ARH-nuh’ (think [name_f]Anna[/name_f] from Frozen) which is find is stronger than ‘[name_u]Lee[/name_u]-[name_f]ANN[/name_f]-uh’.
[name_f]Eliana[/name_f] sounds a little stronger to me, but I understand not wanting [name_f]Ellie[/name_f] as a nn option.
[name_f]Liana[/name_f] could be paired with a strong MN like “[name_f]Liana[/name_f] [name_f]Ruth[/name_f]” or “[name_f]Liana[/name_f] [name_f]Mary[/name_f]” to make it more down to earth.
Also, I think the punch of [name_f]Lia[/name_f] without any elaboration sounds dramatic and strong.
Thanks for the ideas about pronunciation; always good to hear from someone who actually knows a person with the names you’re thinking of.
Afraid I can’t do anything about middle names, but thank you for the suggestions nonetheless. I particularly like [name_f]Lia[/name_f]!
