I'd say Eluned "eh-LOO-ned" and Luned "LOO-ned". However, Luned looks a bit like a word in which case it might be pronounced "loond".I don't really like either of them. I guess they're female but they look quite masculine, especially Luned. I prefer Luna.

I pronounce them EL-oo-ned and loo-ned. I don't know if that's right though, but they sound best to me that way.

Me too, but appears to be wrong. BTW, where does everyone get these killer photo banners, I love them? Yours is great.

They're just icons I got from iconator.com. Be careful with that site though. Some of the icons there can have viruses unfortunately. :/

I wasn't too fond of Eluned very much when I first saw it, but it's grown on me and I like it a lot now. It's one of those names that evokes the imagery of spring flowers and green grass. Ellie would make a good nickname, or even Ned would be cute if one doesn't mind a gender-bending moniker.

Can't stand Ellie, so overdone these days. Ned where I usually live means a hooligan, so a definite no. Don't want Lynn/Linn either as it's so dated and my very common mn. I like Luna but as it's not pn that way, I wouldn't use it as a first name.

I don't like Lynn too much either. Maybe Ellen (Elun) could work, then?

I'm not sure on pronounciation, though I do like Eluned.

The "lune" makes me keep thinking Looney Bin....If I could get past that I would like them!

my speakers aren't working so can't access that link, but I wasn't sure how the end was pn - T or D. Yeah, think I'm going to have to accept it's not pn like I want. Luna though is more likely to be called Looney than Eluned.I still like the names though.
