Rate my names for fun

Soooo, I'm having another boy, and we are naming him Alexander.  Alexandra is my favorite girl's name, but I'm letting it go =)

So for fun, if one day I have a girl, rate my 5 names below if you want to!  Thanks!

Elena

Ella

Eleni

Leah

Isabella

The middle name will be Liberty or Libby after my grandma if that makes a difference =)

I'm very partial to Elena. I don't love Eleni because it feels unfinished, but it's a nice name. I think only Elena and Isabella work with Liberty. 

Alexander is wonderful name.

Thanks.  We have a Nathaniel Max, and we will have an Alexander John.  Elena would be my number one right now too =)  (hypothetical, of course)

Thanks.  My grandma was Liberty, and we were very close.  When she was passing, I told her that if I ever had a girl, I would give her this name for her middle name.  I hope that one day, I get to =)  She was called Libby by many as well which is another option.

I think I like Leah the best, but not loving Leah Liberty.  Hmm...  Isabella is quite a nice name, too, and goes really well with your other boys' names, but it is a bit of an "L" mouthful with Liberty or Libby.

Given all of that, I think I would like the sound and flow of Elena Liberty the best.  Ella is also a nice name, but very "L" heavy, too.

Nice names : ).

Thanks.  I think that I need to love a girl's name, so it's easier to give away my favorite Alexandra.  Hehe.  =)  I love Leah too, but I agree with not loving the double L.

1. Ella - love it!  Classic, simple and feminine even if it is popular

2. Isabella - Same as #1

3. Leah - Same as #1, but feels a little more dated to me

4. Elena - while I like this name, there seem to be a lot of differing pronunciations (EE-lay-nuh or A-lay-nuh)

 

5. Eleni - never heard of this and do not like it.

All of them will have heavy L sounds paired with Liberty or Libby.

Leah is by far my favorite, but I don't think it sounds good with Liberty. It's not an awful combo, though.

Elena is a good name, although I prefer Elaina. It sounds good with Liberty.

To me, Eleni looks like Elena misspelled, and I'm kind of over the -ella names. 

With Liberty, I'd go for Elena.
