Okay, so. I originally got the name Alianna from Lindsay Lohan's sister. Haha. I kinda liked it, but it wasn't my favorite. Then, I heard it again on Teen Mom, spelt Aliannah and I've loved it ever since. I keep getting told that it sounds too made up, though. Which is probably the only reason why I wouldn't use it. Though, I really want to! & I love love love the nickname Ali.

So I'm just wondering what your thoughts on Aliannah are?
Does it sound too made up?

Also, how would you spell it? I can't figure out a spelling for it.
I've seen;

Aliannah
Alianah
Aliana
Alianna
Alyanna

But none of them look right to me! Any other spellings I'm missing?

I really want to be able to use the nickname Ali but I don't like Alison or Alyssa or any other names that you could uses Ali as a nickname for. So I definitely want to keep Aliannah, I just need thoughts on it & different spelling suggestions, please (:

I think Alianna or Aliana would look the best. Adding the H at the end of Aliana just makes it look "teen-momish" or too made up. The one with the Y looks very very very very made up and I wouldn't be able to pronounce it. When you have Alianna or Aliana it is kind of like Arianna which makes it easier to pronounce. I like the name!

I think I actually like Aliannah the best but I know that it looks "teen mom ish" which is partly why I dont want to use it. Plus it's a long name for a little girl! I think my second pick would be Aliana but I wouldn't want it confused with Ariana or Alaina, which is where the 'H' could come in handy. Haha. Idk.

Thanks for your input

If you want to nn Ali my future mother-in-law's name is Alisha but she goes by Ali. I like Alianna the best out of those spellings.

I first got it from Teen Mom myself I never kept up with Lindsay Lohan lol, so I didn't even know she had a sister :L

But Aliannah is nice. Nick name Ali is really cute! I don't think it sounds too made up myself. Though I'd much prefer spelled: Aliana. I personally think it looks cleaner and more compact and less creative like this myself. I don't think your missing any of the possibilities though! I would steer clear of the Y's in it, because adding Y's definitely makes a name look more made up or creative. I personally think adding H's or extra N's does as well, but that may just be me.

Ali is a really cute nick name! Alison and Alyssa aren't really my style either. Though I do like Elissa lately.. but yeah. I vote for Aliana personally!

I hope this helps!
