I love Paloma. Such a sweet name with a beautiful meaning and pronounced the same by both Spanish and English speakers.

Miranda and Renata are my favorites from the thread. I suggested both for our DD but DH vetoed them.

Noooo.

You are right, that is a Nordic, Scandinavian, Dutch name
I would guess fairly easy for Spanish speakers to pronounce. A nice spin on the traditional Maria

Why not Galina(Russian name)? A nice spin on Gala. /s

My DD is Nora and we live in a city with a high percentage of people who speak Spanish. I love love LOVE how they pronounce Nora. I'd pronounce that way myself if it didn't make me look like a gringa that tries too hard

I would personally go with Carina, but that would have been true even before Karen got a bad rap.

With a rolling R and a little more oomph on the A than English.
