I just mean is it like one of Arabella/Aurelia/Esmerelda type names. Lots of syllables and flamboyant.

I know I'll get flamed for saying that! All beautiful names, of course Wink

For some reason I like Stella and Estella but not Estelle

grufallosfriend · 17/08/2017 18:08

I don't get the try hard point either.

But I think you've tried hard to find a lovely name!

Notmyrealname85 · 17/08/2017 17:34

Love it!

Thanks everyone. I'm liking it more and more! Can't think of a middle name to go with it though. Any ideas?

Awwlookatmybabyspider · 17/08/2017 11:08

No I don't like it. I went to school with an Estelle, and She had a real chip on her shoulder

LadyKyliePonsonbyFarquhar · 17/08/2017 10:15

Love it and Stella as a nn

You can also shorten it to Essie or Este both nice.

SarahJonesS · 17/08/2017 08:18

It's lovely. Go for it!

SuperBeagle · 17/08/2017 08:16

Love it.

There was an Estelle in one of my classes at uni. She somehow managed to pull it off even though she was more of a tomboy than a girly girl.

Chaffinch4 · 17/08/2017 08:12

Lovely. I prefer Estelle to Estella.

OrphanAccount · 17/08/2017 07:56

I think it's lovely.

MammieBear · 17/08/2017 07:56

Not at all, lovely name

ParadiseLaundry · 17/08/2017 06:16

Love it, classic, beautiful and strong but not overused.
