Elliotte (girl)

[BabyGirl12345]

Opinions please :) she'll be Elliotte Rose

I have a friend who is an Elliette. It sounds much more feminine to me.

There is an Elliot Rose in a baby group I go to - I think Elliot is starting to become known as a unisex name now so I wouldn't worry too much about people assuming she is a boy.
I don't really like it with the extra 'e' on the end though as it seems unnecessary!

but they're traditionally for boys and so I would spell them different

Please don't. If you want to use a traditionally boys name, do that. But don't make up your own spellings, its the worst thing you can do. It always looks awful. And you're not the one that will have a lifetime of nobody being able to spell your name!

Quirky = made up.
If you want to call her Elliot that's one thing but please don't call her Elliotte.

Well, I like Finley, but was thinking Finnleigh or something? I'm not sure, it's just, for a girl I picture a 'prettier' spelling

Finnleigh is worse. Sorry.

I'd go for Elliott though, if I couldn't use Elliotte - Elliot feels like a surname (Billy Elliot)

I like Elliette!

Why do you need to spell it differently for a girl, I don't understand that.

Step away from Finnleigh! It looks like the name of a Scottish harbour.

If you're set on a boys' name for your daughter just go with the traditional spelling of whichever name you choose. It would just be doubly annoying for her to have a name that isn't spelt as people might expect as well as not belonging to a boy as people might expect.

Finnleigh is awful. It looks like you made it up (which you did!). Names already have spellings, changing them at whim is usually a very bad idea.

No, it's not good. Sorry. The emphasis would be on the 'Otte' part, it sounds wrong.

How about turning it round and going for Ottilie? That's French and very nice.

Or Juliette?

Not sure, I just picture the name differently for a girl I'm not set on a boys name, I just can't find one I like that isn't! Well, I like Kiera... But not sure it goes with surname

I think it's awful. It looks really strange too.

Elliott is too masculine

there is a reason for that...

Why are you determined to use a boys name, with a (you think!) "feminine" spelling? Most people won't have a clue how she spells it, they'll just know she has a name usually associated with boys and think it's a bit daft.

I've seen it spelled Eliette and like that better.

Kiera is nice OP.

Last name is Carter though... Kiera Carter is a bit

Kiera Carter is absolutely fine.

Finnleigh is worse than toilet Elliotte in my opinion. There is no level on which this works as a girl's name imo.

A boy's name with a feminine spelling is just daft. Either pick a unisex name and spell it normally or just choose a girl's name you like. The feminine spelling is too try-hard and I cannot imagine that she will thank you for it in future.

Keira Carter is cute! Not keen on The other 2 names, sorry

Ciara Carter would be lovely!
