Shana/Shanna Elayne vs. To Honor vs. My Mom

We have been looking hard for a girl name to honor my mother, Shannon Elayne, while still giving our possible daughter more of her own name but we hadn't found anything until we saw Shana a few polls down. That other poll said it is pronounced Shan-uh, we actually love it and think it would be perfect to honor my mother if we end up having in our girl name and it seems to be pretty uncommon which is a big bonus to us both. Shana/Shanna Elayne is currently our top choice and we are obviously considering adding an N. Does this combo sound okay? Would you add the second N or leave it as Shana? Would you use a different EL- middle name or a completely different middle name? We are already pretty set on Shana/Shanna for the first name so I doubt it will change even if we get negative comments on it. ~Rachel

Help! I love the name Guinevere, but I can't think of a really good brother and sister name for her. Since Guinevere is so empowering, I want the next names to be powerful as well. Thanks, Genie!
Baby Name Genie:
You seek the Holy Grail of names. Let me help you in your quest. The brother of fair Guinevere will fight on foot with swords aplenty, but on his horse he'll surely lance a lot. Name him Edward for a regal name. A sister could be dubbed Katherine if greatness is what you desire.
