[Opinions] Ellenie/Ellonie/Ellanie
I was playing with the names Helen, Helena and Eleni and came up with the name Ellenie (EL-len-nee). Then I made the variants Ellonie and Ellanie.
WDYT? Are they usable?
Of course you could change the spelling to Elenie, Eleny, etc.Does the sea exist
Because of our longing?

Oooh, I love it! Reminds me of similar names I like such as Melanie and Elodie (: a new favorite of mine that I already added onto my PNL, thanks! :D
I prefer it to both Helen & Helena Eleni & possibly Ellanie. Ellanie & Ellonie don't quite look as nice to me.

Usable? Yes, but I don't think they're very appealing. If I heard the name I'd expect Elanie (so basically Melanie without an M).

Eliene has the same letters as Eileen. Its cute. Ellanie may get confused with Elaine though.

I would stick with Eleni. No matter how you try to spell EL-len-nee it always looks misspelled and creative. I kind of like RO-seh-lees (not good at explaining this, like Rose+Elise) but I have the same problem, it always looks strange when you spell it (Rosalise, Roselise, Roselys, Rosalys).

Hi Caprice !!!I'm not a fan of madeup names...
I like the Greek Eleni and also the Medieval English Ellen.A fictional nice new form would be Elleny.
It would be very British of course! XDEllenie/Ellonie/Ellanie are bad imo. Too elaborated.
Eleny would be too similar to Eleni so I prefer Elleny.
