Re: A few new loves / interesting finds
Tanith - NN Annie? - I prefer Tanis, but I'm not a huge fan of it either way it's very lispy and even though it's a very old name it sounds made-up.
Aysel - "EYE-zel" - I like it, I probably wouldn't use it though since I am not Turkish. I am not sure how accessible it is, I would personally not have trouble pronouncing it, but from experience people are stupid.
Zohar - Sounds too masculine to me,
Sovanna - Pretty, but I think most people would think it was a trendily spelled Savannah. I don't think that makes it unusable though if you don't mind correcting people.
Llinos - I don't know how to pronounce it and I don't think anyone else would either.
Flower - Rabbit name, Flo is fine as a nickname for Flora or Florence.
Merle - So ugly.
Photina - Can't say I find anything about this appealing. Tafari - Interresting sound. I associate it heavily with Haile Selessie and Rastafarianism, I'd not recommend using it if you aren't associated with those cultures.
Zeev - I really like this, although I find the Ziv spelling cleaner.
Everard - I prefer Everett.
Farran - Sounds like feral and ferrets (and I'm terrified of ferrets)
Leolin - Handsome.
Thales - "THAH-leez" - You'd never get people to use that pronunciation, and reminds me of shale and Thames.
Preben - "pre-ben"?
