Go on, what do you think. We can't agree on any boys names but keep coming back to this. Eli for short I guess. Views?

I love it, my 6 year old is Elijah - we always call him Eli though (he gets very cross if we use the full name )

I love it - one of my best friends has an Elijah and it suits him down to the ground. Beautiful name.

And yes, pronounced E - lie when shortened.

Ooh ok hooray! I don't know any others so it seems a bit unusual to me and I am a bit of a square you see. But I do love it.

We have one, it's the only boys name we could think of that we loved.

i love it and wanted it on our list but dh hated it for some reason, might have something to do with the annoying actor that was in lord of the rings.
