What do we think of Elliott?

I am really hoping this DC2 is a girl because I cannot find a boy's name that I love and that my DH will agree to. I love Arthur but he is not sold on it. I also adore Edward but again he doesn't love it. Other options are Hugo or Felix but I am just not sure if they are right?

I proposed Elliott this morning and he quite liked that. The other one my Mum suggested was Hector but I don't think that is for me. I love it but it's a little harsh for my taste.

However, Elliott is softer but still a little old-fashioned. DS1 is George.

We find out in a week whether it's a boy or girl and perhaps this will be moot.

FYI - it's a girl, we think we will settle on Laura.

Thoughts, ideas, comments - all welcome!

I like the name but think I would spell it Elliot for a first name, the 2 ts makes it sounds more surnamey. Love Laura for a girl.

It's DS1's name so I obviously love it!

I like Elliott, although my first thought with your ds1 was the author George Eliot which wouldn't bother me but just thought i'd point it out in case you were bothered

I like Elliott, it was on my boy short list but I had two girls.

This is what I always think of when I hear the name Elliott, John Cusack in The Sure Thing.
