Elestren sounds like a hormone pill to me. I know people will say that almost any unfamiliar-shaped name sounds like a pharma brand name, but Elestren really does immediately make me think of estrogen replacements.

I think I like Perlezenn better. It just seems more interesting. I would have to be taught which syllable to emphasize, in either name.
Elestren seems more usable because it's full of safely fashionable sounds, but Perlezenn doesn't seem horribly clunky, just more memorable. I guess maybe it might sound a little too much like the word "person."

Perlezenn! Elestren definitely sounds like a prescription drug.

Elestren on both counts. It's pretty. Elestren is usable, Perlezenn leas so. It's pretty hard to tell how it's pronounced at a glance.

Both are kind of neat. I prefer Perlezenn; Elestren reminds me a little bit of "elastic." I think they're both usable. If nothing else, they have pretty normal potential nicknames (Ellie, Pearl).

Elestren reminds me of a character from a fantasy series named Elestra...Elestra also happens to be a hormone medication...and I don't like the *estren ending much, anyway.

Perlezenn seems funky but usable. It has a unique sound, but I don't think it looks difficult to pronounce.

Elestren is marginally better, but neither of them are usable.

Whichever one has shown to have the fewest side effects and adverse reactions.
Frankly, they don't sound like people's names; they sound like pharmaceuticals. Especially Elestren.
