    Is it pronounced like LE-nan (like Lenin) or Le-NAN?

    To me it almost looks like Leanne spelled wrong.
    I would prefer Lenae - Le-NAY.

    Sorry, to me, even though it has a different history, all I see is Lennon, and I can't imagine that on a girl at all. Lennon almost feels hyper masculine, what with its association to John Lennon and all. I would pair it with a very feminine name if you do use it, though--I like Lennan Juliet best from your combos, but Lennan Genevieve would work as well.

    Good luck!

    I like it. Lennan seems much more feminine than Lennon, which is how I've seen the name spelled. For the record, I am planning to name my daughter River, so I don't mind boys' names on girls.

    I don't particularly like John Lennon and I definitely don't like Vladimir Lenin and I don't really think Lennan works for anybody as a name, boy or girl.

    Lennox isn't my taste but at least further from those associations.

    I dearly love Leontine and Leonora for a girl but that might be too far from an edgy androgynous feel?

    It's still Lennon and Lennon is still masculine.

    Im afraid Lenin makes it unusable for me.

    I like Leanne, Lena, even Lennox to some extent, but this is too close.

    Lennan is masculine, I can't see it on a girl. Lennon is also masculine, both have different meanings, but both are for boys. I don't think it works on a girl.

    EDIT:
    I also personally hate people taking boy names and making them girl names, and vice versa, so I am biased on that. It's a pet peeve of mine. Especially when dealing with other cultures, because it just seems rude to that culture.
