Viacom Inc. registered an "Allegra" trademark for computer programs in Germany (and probably the U.S.). So it wouldn't be a good idea to use this name. "Alba" is registered an Germany, too (it's the name of a company, I think it has got to do with gherkins, but there's also a registration for computer programs). "Medora" is not available, either (specifically registered for computer programs). "Annabella" is still available.
