I prefer [name]Selena[/name]. I think it’s neat that the great-grandmothers name would be embedded within.
I prefer [name]Elena[/name]! Especially paired with [name]Maria[/name] and [name]James[/name]!! [name]Both[/name] classic non frilly names!
And if this already is one of your favorites I would strongly recommend this elegant, pretty and classic name. Otherwise I would go with [name]Elaine[/name] or [name]Eliana[/name] or even [name]Alana/name.
[name]Selena[/name] doesn’t appeal to me somehow. And I don’t like it paired with [name]Maria[/name] or [name]James[/name].
Good luck!
HTH!
[name]Eliana[/name] for me! [name]Maria[/name], [name]James[/name], and [name]Eliana[/name] is great, but I agree with @dedutchess, I think [name]Maria[/name], [name]James[/name], and [name]Elena[/name] works better. There’s just something about it as a sibset, and I think it honors her much more clearly than [name]Eliana[/name] does. Still, I really like [name]Eliana[/name], and [name]Maria[/name], [name]James[/name], and [name]Eliana[/name] is cute, too. Either one would work great.
I chose [name]Eliana[/name].
[name]Selena[/name] is pretty-sounding, but reminds me of salt.
[name]Selena[/name]!
[name]Eliana[/name] is nice, but feel quite trendy right now. [name]Selena[/name] is perfect and fit’s wonderfully with the siblings.
Oh I am so please to see [name]Eliana[/name] on someone’s list although I prefer it spelled [name]Ellianna[/name] but I love this name! nn [name]Ellie[/name] is adorable & the name is just flawless.
I much prefer [name]Eliana[/name], it’s beautiful, was on my lists but dh wouldn’t let me use it!
[name]Elena[/name] is also really lovely if you wanted to go with something simpler and obviously the conection to your g-grandmother is more direct but either make it very special. I think either [name]Eliana[/name] or [name]Elena[/name] sound great with [name]Maria[/name] and [name]James[/name]
Am not a big fan of [name]Selena[/name], I want to be but I think it’s sounds slightly trendy somehow.
I voted for [name]Eliana[/name], which I like a lot. But I think I also prefer [name]Elena[/name] with the sibling names. [name]Selena[/name] is also nice, though.
I like [name]Eliana[/name] better as a name (it was on our very short list for a girl), but I think [name]Selena[/name] goes better with the siblings if that is important to you.
[name]Selena[/name]! swoons
I love both, but I voted for [name]Selena[/name] because I like it better as a sister to [name]Maria[/name].
[name]How[/name] about [name]Elaina[/name] (same as [name]Elena[/name] but the alternate spelling)?
I still prefer the simple spelling [name]Elena[/name]. I get a more fresh and clean feel when spelled like this. [name]Elaina[/name] or [name]Eliana[/name] are a bit more frilly. But as I stated before I like them all!!
