What are the top 5 names for the baby beluga at the Vancouver aquarium?

It says on vanaqua.org that the contest is closed and that membership voting will begin November 26-today. Do any members know what the final 5 are?|||Here are the 5 final names and their meanings,





Nalli: Short for "Nalligijaujuq", which means "loved".





Sila: Inuit word meaning weather, climate systems, environment and all that surrounds us. In Tusaalanga Inuktitut Sila is short for "Silatuyok” meaning "cute, intelligent"





Nala: Abbreviation for “Nalautsaagaq” meaning "surprise gift".





Kuvi: An abbreviation of the Inuit word "Kuvianartok", which means to "make one happy".





Uumamarik: short for "Uummarittuq" meaning “full of life” in Inuktitut





Hope that helps|||Don't know what the top 5 is, but it is certainly Adorable.
