Had to vote for [name_f]Elena[/name_f]; it’s my name :slight_smile:
Although I pronounce it like eh-leh-nah, and don’t really like the prn. you listed, it’s still a really pretty name and ages well.

I like [name_f]Emmeline[/name_f] as well. I tend to like names that begin with E or A, I don’t know why though haha.

Anyway, I think that you can’t go wrong with any of these two names.

I went for [name_f]Emmeline[/name_f] simply because I don’t like the ‘uh-lay-nuh’ pronunciation of [name_f]Elena[/name_f], I only like Eh-leh-nah.

I prefer [name_f]Emmeline[/name_f] over [name_f]Elena[/name_f]. I would use [name_f]Emmeline[/name_f] & just like [name_f]Elena[/name_f].

[name_u]Love[/name_u] [name_f]Emmeline[/name_f] :slight_smile:

I adore [name_f]Emmeline[/name_f].

[name_f]Emmeline[/name_f], it’s in our top 3 girls names for this bump.

I prefer [name_f]Elena[/name_f]. Never been a fan of [name_f]Emmeline[/name_f], and if I used it, I’d probably pronounce it [name_f]Em[/name_f]-may-leen.

So tough, I love both! I think I slightly prefer [name_f]Elena[/name_f] at the moment. [name_f]Do[/name_f] you have any middle name ideas? That might make it easier to choose.

I think both are nice names, but my vote went to [name_f]Elena[/name_f] in the end.

Me too. It’s always, always Eh-leh-nah for me. Uh-lay-nah is [name_f]Alena[/name_f].

I would use [name_f]Emma[/name_f]-[name_u]Lynn[/name_u] or [name_f]Emmalyn[/name_f].

Is it pronounced [name_f]El[/name_f]-lane-nah as in [name_f]Elena[/name_f] in The Vampire Diaries?

I like them both equally, but I had to vote for [name_f]Emmeline[/name_f] because I don’t like the way you pronounce [name_f]Elena[/name_f]. I have always pronounced it eh-lay-nah
