  Eliana seems ok. Not a fan of Oriana.

  I have absolutely no idea how to even attempt to pronounce Saoirse... Seems like a name that your child will have to correct for its entire life, both pronunciation and spelling.

   I like Eliana. Saoirse is pretty but unless you live in a very Irish community, I agree that she would have to correct a lot of people. Not a fan of Oriana. Makes me think of Oral.

  My friend named her daughter Saoirse. I know how to say it. Her friends know how to say it. Strangers have no idea. (Seer-sha for those who dont know) it's a beautiful name.

  I love Saoirse. I really like all Celtic names with traditional spelling. Oriana reminds me of Orion.

  If you're Irish, Saoirse is fine, if you're not Irish, it kinda looks pretentious. 
  
  I really don't like Eliana. 
  
  I like Oriana the most of the three, but she's a fairly popular character in League of Legends, which might bother you or not. (They spell it different wrong.)

  Thanks, everyone!  I appreciate the opinions.  @wassuphoes, when I think Oriana as a video game character, I actually think about Miranda Lawson's baby sister from the Mass Effect series. A LoL reference won't bother me.

  Eliana is nice. Saoirse is going to be one of those ones that not many people will know how to say, which will be confusing and kind of frustrating after a while. I didn't even know until someone posted the pronounciation earlier.
