[Opinions] Re: Anika and Ari
in reply to a message by Sofia
I don't mind Anika, but have always loved Danica far more. Between Anika and Ana-Sofia....well that's a tough call. Ana-Sofia is so pretty. But Anika has so much life. I just don't know.
Is Ari pronounced are-ee (as opposed to air-ee)? As you mentioned, the Ariel association probably renders that unusable for a boy. But what about Ari as a nickname for one of these?
Aram
Aramis
Archangela
Ardal
Arden
Areli
Ares
Arman
Arlo
Armando

Yea, I'm having a tough time deciding between all Ana derivatives to find a honoring name. I think I might just make a list of all possibilities and let my husband decide when the time comes. Danica is not pronounced with a K here, so it's not an option.
I pronounce Ari as AH-ree. Unfortunately, I only like Ares and Armando and they're not really usable here. Arian is another option, but might not be a good idea if he moves from Croatia.
