I don't care for any of those names. I do like Elian, or Eliana but that spelling has too many letters!

I love love love Rafael but not spelt with a 'ph'. So he can be called 'Rafa', not 'Rapha'! Alfredo is my favourite pasta dish.

Cashmere for a boy? OMG, this one is going to be so screwed in middle school... Alfredo and Rafael are OK, I guess, and Eliannah is a horrendous spelling. What's the point of adding so many letters?

Alfredo is just th spamnish version of Alfred. Raphael is so weird spelled liek that and the rest can go jump off a bridge (the names, not the people!)

I have no idea where Rafael's parents come from, but here in Brazil we don't use "ph" in our daily life, nor in our names. So it's actually the opposite, people always think of old-fashioned when they come across a Raphael, or a Rodolpho, etc; while Rafael and Rodolfo are really common and the usual spelling. I think it's just amazing how spelling changes so much from place to place! :)

I love Rafael, my best friend is a Rafael, so I'm biased.
Eliannah has too many letters, me thinks.
Alfredo is not horrible, but it's not my thing, either.
And Cashmere will be mocked a lot. Poor boy. :(

I could swear I typed "I love Rafael. My best...". I hate when I mess up punctuation. >:(

I kind of like Rafael, though I prefer the Raphael spelling. Eliannah looks weird/awkward. I don't like Alfred(o).

Cashmere makes me think of that one Seinfeld episode... The maid's voice sounds in my head, lol. (Of course, this only makes sense if you've seen it. ;))
