Aileen or
Elaine?
Elaine.
Elaine has a medieval vibe that I like.
Aileen is just meh and spelled that way it makes me think of the serial murderer.
Brady or
Darby -- Neither is great, but I'll choose
Brady.
Darby sounds dorky.
Caroline or
Cornelia --
Caroline, which is a pretty classic. I hate the "corn" in
Cornelia.
Foster or
Forest --
Forest. It sounds better.
Gary or
Gray? --
Gray.
Gary is just so dated to me and
Gray is more unexpected.
Ilene or
Eleni? -- Well,
Ilene sounds just like
Aileen, which I rejected earlier, but while I didn't find
Aileen preferable to
Elaine, I do find
Ilene preferable to
Eleni. Plus it doesn't have the serial murderer spelling. So
Ilene it is.
Maria or
Amira --
Amira. Not a fan of
Maria.
Amira is much more interesting.
Orlando or
Ronaldo --
Orlando. Don't really like the second syllable of
Ronaldo.
Roman or
Ramon --
Roman. It's kind of handsome.
Ramon isn't bad, but I like
Roman more.
Sora or
Rosa --
Sora. I like
Rose, but
Rosa is a whole nother ball game.
Rosa is heavy and dark.
