Which spelling do you prefer? I prefer Linnea, but I wonder if it will be mispronounced a lot - I live in the US. Linnaea is not kre8tiv, by the way; it's the genus name of the twinflower.thanks muchly!

I like Linnea better also. It may be mispronounced some, but I think people would catch on pretty quickly (hopefully, lol).
Linnaea just looks excessive somehow, imo.

Linnaea is on my list. I like Linnea, but I think the other is more elegant.

Linnéa, with the accent. It looks simpler and less messy imo.Miranda

Linnea. Linnaea seems too easy to misspell and mispronounce.
