[Opinions] Hannah
What are your thoughts on the name Hannah? I love the sound that it has. What middle names would you pair with Hannah? I thought of Hannah Eleanor and Hannah Ophelia. Thanks for everything in advance!PS- I'm sorry, but I have to ask it! Lilah and Hannah? :-D Thanks.

I love Lilah! I've always preferred it to Lila. :)I used to know a girl called Hannah Renee, which I think it very pretty.-- Sarah

Hannah is one of my favorite girl names. I don't personally think in 12ish years it will be "outdated". To me it's like Elizabeth, I don't think it can go out of style.Hannah Eleanor is pretty.Hannah Ellery
Hannah Ellen
Hannah Bronwyn

I know so many Hannah's under the age of 6. I just can't think of any of their middles.It's a pretty name though....just so many of them!

Do you think that in about 12ish years, when I have children, there will be so many Hannah's? I wasn't sure how it would grow in popularity ;) There are so many!

I think Hannah will be like Jennifer is now. Jennifer is consider so 80's and outdated. Hannah will be that way in 15-20 years.On the other hand I'm starting to like the old 80's names. Jennifer nn Jenny is starting to really appeal to me.

Jennifer never appealed to me. And I have no idea why, because I have a beloved cousin with this name. And I think you're right, that the same unfortunate thing will happen to Hannah.

I just thought a few minutes ago that every Hannah/Hanna that I know is blond with blue eyes. It's still a lovely name even if it is popular.

I adored it about 10 years ago, but it's terribly overused and boring to me now. :( Hannah Eleanor and Hannah Ophelia are both nice. As long as it's a classic, old-fashioned or Biblical name in the middle, it sounds nice to me. But I HATE to see Hannah Taylor or Hannah Kaytlin, which I do quite often these days. Blech. Lilah & Hannah look cutesy to me with the similar endings. Lila / Lyla and Hannah would be better, imo.

I really like Hannah, I think its sweet. I do have a problem envisioning it on an adult, but I think its because the only Hannah that I've ever known is a little five year old girl.I don't really like the way Hannah Eleanor and Hannah Ophelia flow, however, nor do I like Lilah and Hannah as a sibset.Hannah Carmen

I had to answer this post because my name is Hannah (well, it is Hannah-Sue, but everyone calles me Hannah). First, I think it is a name that might not date so much as other popular ones now because it has been popular for quite a while. The negative side of this is of course that having been popular for a while, everyone knows quite a few Hannahs and one ends up being known as Hannah A., Hannah B., or in my case Tall Hannah.I'm not great at suggestions, but I'll have a bash!Hannah Lisette

Hannah Iris

Hannah Estelle
Hannah Lilac

Hannah Beatrice
Hannah Delphine

Hannah is a wonderful, classic name. Hannah Eleanor sounds lovely, however, I think Hannah Ophelia sounds awkward (though I like both names). Same goes for Lilah and Hannah.What about:
Hannah Sophia
Hannah Mae
Hannah Kathleen
For names that go with Hannah, what about:
Sarah
Kathryn
Maureen
Ruby

Hannah's a total yawn at this point, I'm afraid. I can't look at Hannahs in the birth announcements without cringing a little; it's been done to death at this point.Anyway, combos, since the glottal stop involved in saying both Hannah Eleanor and Hannah Ophelia doesn't appeal to me:Hannah Louisa
Hannah Giaconda
Hannah Vivian
Hannah Penelope
Hannah Clare
Hannah Scholastica
Hannah Laurina
Hannah Laurel
Hannah Marian
Hannah Margaret
Hannah Scarlett
Hannah Cordelia
Hannah Lucasta
Hannah Rosamunde / Hannah Rosalind / Hannah RoisinArray

I like Hannah but to me it sounds kinda childish and cutesy. I really couldn't picture it on any one over the age of 15/16. I like Hannah Elizabeth or Hannah Rose for middle names. I think Hannah and Lilah go ok together but are a little matchy.

Thanks! I also wasn't sure how it would age. Thanks for your suggestions :)
