What do you think? Is it too short and simple? Should I just go for Ella? Just love, love, love this name.

It’s nice. Much better than Ellie.

My friends daughter is Eleanor and everyone calls he Ellie, I love the name and think it gives her options.

Lovely. I like simple names

I love it. But then I can watch Legally Blonde on a loop.

The first thing I thought when I saw your title was fuckin’ Elle.

Sorry.

Elle's lovely. Ella is bloody horrible and boring, plus. There everywhere.

AnyaMoondial · 08/11/2017 12:06

I absolutely love Elle just as it is. Much prefer it to Ella (which is also nice).

Dd is referred to as Elle most of the time as she hates her name Eloise. I like both tbh.

HollyandBrambles · 08/11/2017 11:52

Yep lovely

Elle is nice on it's own, like Elle Macpherson! Or could be short for Isabelle, Eleanor... if you wanted something longer with Elle as a nickname, but if you love it I would go for Elle on it's own.
