Interesting! Is Jernai a jazzed-up Journey? Lyra will do, I suppose. Laurie ... Laura is probably my favourite name of all time, and I much prefer it. I'd like Corinne and Natalia to swap endings! Corinna and Natalie somehow please me more.Cody just links up to codes and coding in today's world, though I did think of Buffalo Bill. Piyush ... no comment. Raul is used by (some) Afrikaans-speaking South Africans too; not sure why, Portuguese influence perhaps. And Bruno is OK, though friends of my late aunt named their daughter Brunhilde and always called her Bruni, which I thought was a wicked waste. Maybe Bruno will escape it.
Corinne is pretty.
I like Corinne and Natalia.
Bruno is easily my favorite.Jernai hurts.
Corinne- how do you say that? I think it's okay. Is it pronounced like ko-reen or more like the name Karina? Natalia- nice name! I prefer Natalya but this one is nice too.Jernai- that's new. I don't know how to say this name. yer-nai (ai being like the i in night)? Laurie- sounds like diminutive of Lauren. Lyra- 7/10. Cody- I don't really like it. Piyush- it's okay. Raul- 6/10.Bruno- I don't really like it.
My mother was named Evelyn Corinne, pronounced ka - wren. For some reason, she was called Ko - reen. She was in her 50s before she learned her true middle name was Corinne.
Corrine is the preferred spelling for Ko reen
Corinne is the preferred spelling for Ka wren.
I like...Corinne
