Diana in all cases

I prefer Deanna, because it sounds about 100 degrees warmer to me. Diana is lovely, but it's also icy.I don't really have an opinion about one fitting better than the other. Drew is one of my favorite names, though.

Diana is prettier. I like Diana Lily.

Diana! For me, Deanna has always sounded rather low class. Diana on the other hand sounds classy and something that will always be in style. Diana Lillie is pretty, and since I already read your response to Chrisell I won't worry about the spelling of Lillie :). Drew, Donovan, and Diana are all nice together.

Dianna, definitely!
I really really like the name Diana (it's on my PNL), only I spell it 'Dianna', which I think is more unusual. It's one of my favourite names, where as Deanna, by comparison, I've never particularly cared for (though admittedly it's okay).

Diana by a million miles . . .Diana is classic and timeless, whereas Deanna screams 1970s / 1980s trendy to me.Diana Lillie is very cute, although I would prefer Diana Lily.Drew, Donovan & Diana works fine if you're going for a 'D' theme.

I already have Drew & Donovan. Have not made up my mind if I will name last and final kid with a D. Some days I think yes and some days I think no. :0) Lillie is my Mom's name so I like that spelling best. I have seen her name so much that the Lily spelling doesn't look right to me. LOL

Lol fair enough. I find Lillie too cutesy but since it's a middle name it's not really a problem.
