Which name do you prefer?

Of the name Helena and Eleanor? Honest opinions please

At the moment our favourite name is Eloise Helen. Helen will be after my Nan who passed away a few years ago.

I am really starting to become keen on Helena and Eleanor instead of using Helen as a middle name.

Helena is beautiful and unusual.

 

[Mitsuko]

Eleanor. Classy! (Helena's a nice name too, hard to decide!)

 

[Diana]

I don't personally like either but if I had to pick (which I did), I'd go with Helena because Helen is prettier.

Thanks all

Eleanor for me xxx

 

[~Nicki~]

I voted Eleanor.

Would you mind people shortening it to Ellie? I think that is what may happen so you should think about whether you would like that.

Personally I would.

Hope this helps x

[Flowerpot]

I like Eleanor, it's an old name that sounds good again!

 

[MrsO29]

I have an auntie called Helena and she gets called Lena, in fact I didn't even know her actual name was Helena until I was in High School!

 

[Pingu]

So far Helena is winning

First of all, congrats on your pregnancy, wishing you a happy and healthy 9 months.

And I like the name Helena best.

 

[Mrs Dot]

Eleanor all the way! It's my first choice, Eleanor Grace if I have a girl
I've chosen it as my Mum was called Eleanor xxx

I liked Eleanor as a name best, but Helena is very nice with the significance of your nan! Both lovely!
