Hey we all have different opinions. I'm not gonna get mad because you dont like them.

To answer questions,

Acadia - French; Idyllic place - How do you pronounce this please?
I've always pronounced it uh-kay-dee-uh. Maybe someone who knows for sure can let me know if I'm wrong or right.

Charlotte - English; Free - This is gorgeous. I have it on my list, and I'd use the nickname
Not a question and answer, but just saying, if I named my daughter this, I'd probably call her Lottie. I love Lottie, it sounds so sweet to me.

Eilley - Irish; Beautiful bird - How do you pronounce this?
Its pronounced like eye-lee.

Eliana - Hebrew; The Lord has responded - Is this proounced Ellie-Anna? If it's pretty and I'd spelt it Ellianna.
I pronounce it as ellie-ahna.

Eowyn - N/A - How do you pronounce this?
ay-oh-win. Its from the Lord of the Rings.

Lucille - French; Light - How do you pronounce this?
Lou-seal. Nickname Lucy.

Luella - N/A - Is this pronounced Lou-ella? If so it's pretty.
Yep!

Saoirse - Irish; Freedom - How do you pronounce this?
Seer-sha. Its one of my favorite Irish names.
