I work with a lot of students and I found a bunch of names I've never seen/heard before so I thought I'd post.

Ilyana
La Sheron
Mireille(I like this, how to pronounce?)
Aniqa
Tenley(I like this one too, though I'm from the DC area and it reminds me of Tenleytown :()

I like Ilyana.

if Mireille is the female french name, it is pronounced MEE-ray-ye

Mireille is French, and pronounced me-ray. Aniqa is a horrible spelling, but is currently my favourite girl's name. Its traditional spelling is Anneke, but that's hard to pronounce so I think we might go with Annika.

I really like the spelling Annika!

I have actually heard the name Ilyana before...in a video game series called Fire Emblem. I think it's a nice name, but the Il-beginning tends to trip me up somewhat.

Mireille

*Mireille is also quite pretty.

Stupid touch screen.

Ilyana - Magick from X-Men is fucking awesome.
La Sheron - Jebus on a fuckng breastick... NO.
Mireille - The only way this name sounds pretty is like this... the Spanish version is sooo ugly.
Aniqa - Nice way to butcher a pretty name.
Tenley - ugh.

I know someone names Mireille from Belgium. She pronounces it "Myew-RAY"
