Danae is pretty, and I've always loved the Greek Names. How do you pronounce it though? Is it pronounced like Dana?

Don't know for sure how to pronounce it but I would imagine it would be similar to Janae. Which I pronounce JA-nay

Exactly... dah-nay. That and Janae always make pretty middle names I think.
Never really considered them as firsts (though my brain is now, look for a post!)Danan (i.e. Elora Danan) would make a decent alternative, but I would go with Danae.

When it comes to the name June, I believe that I can come up with something a bit better than that. There are names here like Ayla, Freya, Titania, and yet all I can come up with is June? Come on! LOL I agree with you about Jane being plain. I was thinking of Jane because of Jane Austen and the character in Pride and Prejudice, that's all. I think I may look at some Old Norse names for her middle name, as Olivia has Old Norse roots as well as Germanic.
