As a full name or nickname? Is it going to get very popular?

One toddler christened Nell, one 30 year old and one nearly 40 year old although their actual names are Helen

None. Nell is fine but Nelly is Nelly the elephant and not on your nelly.

I know one 5yo called Nella

I know only one! She is 30. I can't remember in her case if it's short for Eleanor or Helen, because she never uses her whole name. She is very sweet - I think it's a great name.
