I think they are both elegant and timeless. Struggling~~Please help us choose between two final names:) Thanks in advance!
They’re both great! Have you chosen a middle name? That may help. If you haven’t, I’m not sure that it gets much better than [name_f]Elena[/name_f] [name_f]Catherine[/name_f]. On the first name alone, I’m biased towards [name_f]Elena[/name_f].
The middle name will be my grandmother’s name, [name_f]Jane[/name_f]!
I love them both, but I love [name_f]Elena[/name_f] just a teensy bit more, and it fits nicely with [name_f]Jane[/name_f]… Actually, they both do. [name_f]Elena[/name_f] [name_f]Jane[/name_f] is very pretty, as is [name_f]Catherine[/name_f] [name_f]Jane[/name_f]. I personally think that [name_f]Elena[/name_f] [name_f]Jane[/name_f] is a little more original- but they are both beautiful.
[name_m]Both[/name_m] names are indeed elegant, classy, and beautiful. What great taste in names you have! However, for the first name, I would choose [name_f]Elena[/name_f]… [name_f]Elena[/name_f] [name_f]Jane[/name_f] would be terrific!
I prefer [name_f]Catherine[/name_f]. [name_f]Elena[/name_f] is often butchered in English, and it doesn’t have the same timeless elegance as [name_f]Catherine[/name_f] (in an English-speaking context, of course).
[name_f]Elena[/name_f] and [name_f]Catherine[/name_f] are two of my very favorite names, and I love the combo [name_f]Elena[/name_f] [name_f]Catherine[/name_f]. But I like [name_f]Elena[/name_f] slightly better with [name_f]Jane[/name_f]. Either way you can’t go wrong, they are both beautiful. Good luck!
Like all the other posters here, I adore your naming style – timeless, feminine but not frilly, elegant : you can’t go wrong with either [name_f]Elena[/name_f] or [name_f]Catherine[/name_f], especially with [name_f]Jane[/name_f] as a middle ! I think it would then come down to where you live and whether the pronunciation of [name_f]Elena[/name_f] might be an issue --> I have a slight, slight preference for [name_f]Elena[/name_f] [name_f]Jane[/name_f], but [name_f]Catherine[/name_f] [name_f]Jane[/name_f] might be a little bit easier to pronounce everywhere. At any rate, congratulations !
[name_m]Both[/name_m] beautiful. I’ve always loved [name_f]Elena[/name_f]. [name_f]Catherine[/name_f] is a wonderful classic, though. I love them both, but I guess I’d go with [name_f]Elena[/name_f] [name_f]Jane[/name_f] if I had to choose!
[name_m]Both[/name_m] very pretty, [name_f]Catherine[/name_f] is a long time favorite of mine though so I have to go with that. Naybe [name_f]Catherine[/name_f] [name_f]Elena[/name_f] is a possibility?
