Elliott

OK, moving on from Dillon....
What are opinions on Elliott. This is my preferred name choice but am concerned it is heavily associated with ET. Also, is it becoming more common as a girls name than a boys now? (Thinking of Scrubs).
As I say, I really like it and don't know any other Elliott's. Thanks

I love Elliott. It was very high on my list. Go for it!

No, it's not becoming more of a girls name... Some people just choose to use it on their girls and I don't think people even really think ET anymore... I love it a lot

I like it, and even if some people do think of the film ET, that isn't negative.

My nephews name he's 4. I love it! It's not common. I know of no others. Go for it.

Don't like it at all. Sorry.

I have an Elliot. 1 t though - I think 2 is similar to a surname. It is always spelt wrong though! (Oh and he was named after ET because that was where we went in our first date)

I like Elliot, and E.T was one of my fav films as a child Smile

Gorgeous. It's what I would deem as a good boys name. Oh my god. I really do sound like KH.

Paddletonio · 03/01/2016 22:00

Love it

Pantsalive · 03/01/2016 22:04

I love the name. It was second choice for my DS. Also with only 1 T though.

williwonti · 03/01/2016 22:12

My dS2's middle name so i love it

I like it.

DancingDuck · 03/01/2016 22:15

I like it. It's not over-popular but still a classic name. ET didn't occur to me. It's one of those great names that is cute when they are young and stylish as they get older.

I love it. My oh vetoed it because he found it feminine (i can't see his view at all!). It would be one of my top choices if I could have it.

If our next dd (due in 3 weeks) accidentally turns out to be a boy, we will call him Elliot 😊 love it x
