My husband is from Denmark, and his family still lives there. We are having problems finding names that we like in both languages. We like how some sound in Danish but not in English, and vice versa...

Here are some names that we think we like in both languages (I've included their pronunciations in Danish). What do you guys think? Also, let us know if you have any suggestions.

Amalie (a-MAY-lee-eh)
Kathlene (kat-LEE-neh)
Charlotte (shar-LOH-deh)
Annelise (an-eh-LEE-seh)
Elizabeth (eh-LEE-sah-bet)

William (VEEL-yam)
Daniel (DANE-yel)
Aron (AH-ron with a gutteral 'r')
Poul (PAH-wool) (family name)
Alan (AEH-lan) (also family name)
Nicolas (NIH-coh-lass)

My husband's name is Kristian, and mine is Karen. Our last name is Skou (pr. rhymes with snow)
