I want people to choose based on the name meaning as well. Audrey means noble strength, Leanna is form of Eliane which has a meaning "sun" and "beautiful waterfall" and Evelyn means lively and pleasant and is sometimes considered to be a form of "Eve".

Actually...

Elaine doesn't mean "sun" OR "beautiful waterfall". It actually and old French form of Helen, and Helen means "torch" or "moon".

For Evelyn, the meaning is uncertain, however, its associated with the meaning "bird".

If you go on the Opinions Board like Andy said, and just tell them to pick based on meaning, they would be happy too :D

Good Luck

Yes, Elaine means "torch" or "moon", but Eliane which I wrote Liana is a form of does mean "sun".
