Re: Which spelling?
Elinor or Eleanor - Elinor has always appealed to me because the spelling makes me think of Elinor Dashwood. It feels like a gentle rebel sort of name. Elinor is a little strange, but it feels lighter and more alert than Eleanor.Elise or Alise - EliseCatherine or Katherine - Catherine is the more vintage choice, so I like that one more.Rebecca or Rebekah - Rebecca. I find Rebekah alien-looking and unfriendly.Isobel or Isabelle - Isobel; it's so Gothic, poetic and sad.
