Alana
What do you think of this name? Do you like Aloha?

I think it's beautiful :) Frustrates me though that there are two potential ways for people to pronounce it, as I worry that a kid with this name would be constantly correcting people. S xx

I don't mind Alana, it still has to grow on me a bit more though. I'd use to honour my grandfather, Alan.I don't like Aloha, isn't that Hawaiian (sp) for hello and goodbye?

Alana is pretty but feels rather empty to me--all style and no substance.Aloha is really tacky IMO, sorry.

I'm sorry, but Alana has always sounded trashy to me. I'm not sure why.Aloha...trust me, you don't want to name your child this. My last name is Alora, and the kids called me _______Aloha all through grade school. Not a big deal, but man was it annoying.

I love Alana (combo is Alana Catherine). I don't care for Aloha, though. :/

It's pretty; I prefer the spelling Alanna. Aloha is a bit too obvious, I don't think it would work well.
