My daughter’s name is Eglantine. I think both unique and beautiful 🙂

It’s lovely.
Is the last syllable tyne or teen though?
I have a different name ending in ‘ine’ and find I get a mix of pronunciations (it’s een in my case). Does your daughter have any issues with this?

I always loved Anouk, but one of those ones I don't think I'd be brave enough to use. Same with Clarabelle.

For a boy I loved Alessandro/Alejandro until 2009 when it was everywhere thanks to Lady Gaga 🤣 Elio sounds beautifully melodic to me and has a lovely meaning too.

My husband has a soft spot for Rufio!

We pronounce it to rhyme with shine. No, never any issues!
