I love that name!! Friends of ours just names their DD Elsie and I though at the time, what a cool name!!! Go for it!

Elsie is a fantastic name. Actually, if We had not decided that our dcs would have arabic names that would be Dd1's name! It reminds me of "Fairy tale a true story".

Love it!!! [dd3 is Elizabeth and I wanted to shorten it to Elsie, but she decided on Betty!] Go for it!

it's divine

Elsie is great. I'm all for cool old-lady names. And what a lovely way to honour both your Grans

It's lovely, especially as there's a good family connection on both sides. Elseba is gorgeous, too (but this is the woman who wanted to call her DD Elphaba... vetoed by, well, everyone with a brain, really).

No, it's lovely. I met a six week old Elsie recently and thought at the time what a good choice of name.

I love it.
I know of 2 recent baby girls; Sylvie & Ivy and I love those names too.

It's lovely. No more old-ladyish than the ubiquitous Lily or May.
