    IMO fewer letters is almost always better, as long as it's still an accepted spelling. I'm pretty sure Eliana fits that

    I agree, I'm pretty sure Eliana is the most common spelling as well - but wasn't 100% on that. I'd much rather go with a common spelling.

    One L, one N. Are the other spellings even real? I legitimately don't know. But for sure, if you want the /ahna/ pronunciation rather than Anna, use only one N.

    Eliana, short & sweet. The one that makes me cringe is Ellianna...way too many letters that are unnecessary.

    I believe that the double n changes the pronounciation to El-ee-AH-nuh, not El-ee-AW-nuh.
