I recently came across the name Ethana (Ee-Thaw-nah) and fell in love! I'm a little biased on it though because my little brothers name is Ethan, so it will forever stay a GP since, along with my brother, there are three other Ethan's in my family so adding an Ethana would be very confusing indeed! :P

Soooo, since it will remain a GP I've fallen in love with the GP combo, Ethana Rose! What do you ladies think? Icky, pretty, unique, crazy?

Ummm..... I think Ethana would have to grow on me :) I do like the similar name Ethne. Also, what is GP? (I'm terrible with abbreviations!)

GP stands for Guilty Pleasure, a name you love but would never use for some reason. :)

I like it. It has a really pretty, exotic sound. Ethana Rose sounds really good together (but then, almost anything does with Rose!), but I'm not fond of the combo only because I don't like "filler" names. Personal preference!

I'm not a huge fan of the THAWN sound in the middle :\ It almost sounds like someone saying Evonna with a speech impediment.

It's not exactly Thawn, that's just only and closest way I could decribe it. :P It closer to Ee-Thah-na, the the longer sounding Ee-Thawn-na, it's just one of those names you have to hear to know exactly how someone it trying to say it haha

I dont particularly love Ethan, nor Ethana, sorry! :( i said it out loud a couple of times, but I guess I'm just not fond of the way I hear it. It certainly makes a fine GP though! Ethana Rose goes well together :)
