Rainiana

I came across the name Rainiana randomly on the internet and instantly became obsessed with it in a “I’m not sure if it’s usable but it is stunning” kind of way. It doesn’t help that I’m refalling in love with all names [name_f]Rain[/name_f] at the moment.

So is Rainiana useable as a first name? Better in the middle? [name_m]Or[/name_m] is it more a guilty pleasure? Are there any other [name_f]Rain[/name_f] names that people prefer? I also love [name_f]Rhiannon[/name_f] with the nickname “Rain”, Rainforest (def a guilty pleasure) and just plain [name_f]Rain[/name_f]. Thank you for your thoughts.

oh… Rainiana is GORGEOUS!!! I think I would cry with happiness if I met a Rainiana

I like just [name_f]Rain[/name_f] or [name_f]Raina[/name_f] more - something about how Rainiana is just the R initial + the same letters over and over makes it look a little messy and sound a bit tongue-twistery to me? But I think it works as a middle! Another idea is [name_f]Rainy[/name_f] - if [name_f]Sunny[/name_f] and [name_f]Stormi[/name_f] can work, I think [name_f]Rainy[/name_f] could too. Also potential GP territory but I think [name_f]Rainbow[/name_f] can work as a middle as well :sweat_smile:

I much prefer just [name_f]Rain[/name_f] or [name_f]Rhiannon[/name_f] “Rain” (I had a friend in high school whose first and middle name was Rh!annon Ra!ne, and she went by both names!). I had a difficult time figuring out how to say Rainiana, with all of the similar letters all in a row, and my brain first read it as Rainania before I slowed down to actually take it letter by letter.

I do find it intriguing but I do find all the matching vowels together a bit confusing at the moment. It could grow on me though.

For now, [name_f]Rhiannon[/name_f] ‘Rain’ or just [name_f]Rain[/name_f] are my preferences (or [name_f]Rainie[/name_f] / Raina)

To me the letters blur together and I’m not quite sure how to say it. It is an interesting name though. I prefer [name_f]Rania[/name_f], Raina/Rayna/Reina or [name_f]Rhiannon[/name_f] myself.
