Hi everyone!

As you could read in my previous thread, I was still undecided about a girl's name. We already have a boy's name (since we don't know what the baby will be yet).

For a girl, we now have two options:

Leena Durita Johanna
Thessa Durita Johanna

Which one do you think is prettier???

    Thanks for the reply!

    I'll pronounce Leena the Dutch way. So it could also be with 1 E (Lena) (The name comes from Helena, maybe that helps with the pronunciation)

    Thanks everyone for the replies again!

    I'll definitely think again about the h in Thessa or the double e in Leena. I agree with you all, but my initial instincts were like that. First, I need to make a choice on which name it will be, then we can discuss it with hubby again
