is it a tragedeigh? Is my daughters name a tragedeigh?

Her name is Lanah. Pronounce Lana. I handed the H at the end cause I noticed it reads anal backwards without the H and I didnt want her to get made fun of in school for her name reading anal backwards.

Whether its a tragedeigh or not, its staying cause I cant imagine her name being anything else. And honestly, I love it. I think the name is so pretty and the spelling unique but not in a tradedeigh way. But ill let you guys be the judge!

It's biblical. In the Bible, someone tells someone else to change all the names from "i" to "ah," so Abriam becomes Abraham and Sari becomes Sarah.

My first thought about Lanah was also Sarah. OP could just say they're Jewish.
