is Ena pronounced ee-nah or enn-ah? Just curious.
I like the simple beauty of many of the names on your list. Lilac, Joy, Maeva, and Rosalie immediately convey such lovely images, that they are sweet as names. Alba is just one of those strong but elegant short names that I adore.
Rhone is interesting! I am not sure I have seen it before, but I really like it!
Atlas and Wren are great names as well.

I like both pronunciations of Ena and am torn. I think I'd probably use EN-a. Maybe. EN-a sounds a bit more "grown up" to me. But I do like EE-na quite a bit...
Thanks so much for the nice things you've said about my names!

I like Alba (love!!), Coralie, Joy & Sedona, and Ari, & Henry
Alba doesn't get nearly enough love!
I just love the Italian & Spanish meaning! It's so pretty. I'd definitely use it myself but I can't use both Sylvie and Alba, and I love Sylvie just that tiny bit more. So I need other people to use Alba for me ;)
If you don't mind me asking, why can't you use Sylvie and Alba? Is there a general association I'm missing? I like them both as well.
No, it's a personal association that would be completely irrelevant to anyone else. It's a couple I know quite closely whose names are variants of Sylvie and Alba. Either one alone is going to look like I've named my kid after one of them, which I wouldn't be, both were favourites before I even met them, but to use both would be way too much, and everyone would know it.
So unless you know the same couple I do, it's not a problem!

I was wondering if I had missed some association somewhere that I should have known about. I'm glad I didn't.
That's a tough situation about the names. I'm sorry you can't eventually use both!

Nope, you're all good to go :)
I'm ok with it. I'm more bummed about the fact that my mum used Oscar for her cat. It was the one boys name I could actually see myself using, but we can't have an Oscar-the-person and Oscar-the-cat in the same family.
Also I can't use Xanthe and Felix because I used to babysit siblings named that. One is a coincidence, two is a copycat. It's just the way it works out!
