There is that touching story of twins named Kyrie and Brielle from Massachusetts.  One twin was very sickly, and the nurse took the healthy twin and put it in the baby bed with the sick twin.  The sick twin improved immensely after being with her sister.  The couple had another kid, a boy, named Elan that was a few years older. The kids are doing well now.  

I like those names, but I don't think I would use them.

I don't like K's, and because I sing latin to me Kyrie is pronounced ki-ree-ay. Brielle is kind of blah and trendy.
Elan is surely pronounced like Ellen?
eh... nice story though.

I'm pretty sure Elan is pronounced somewhat like Ee-lun.

Cute story. I'm not a huge fan of any of the names. Kyrie is...different. I've never heard it before. Brielle isn't bad, but it's not a favorite for me. Elan I don't like much at all.

The name Kyrie always makes me think of my ex's church... there's some Lutheran chant-song thing called a Kyrie, which is apparently a prayer to God for help.

From http://www.goodshepherd.nb.ca/liturgy...
"Kyrie is a Greek word meaning 'O Lord.' It is a cry to the Lord for help and strength*."

That's a wonderful story.

I have a niece named Kyrie.
