Thoughts on Eleanor?

[shalalala]

Title says it all really! Thank you

I wanted that for dd, but then my BIL called his son Johann a year earlier, grrr

Lovely !

Lovely in its entirety only. Definitely no nn, no more Ellie's or Ella's needed in the world.

Beautiful name!

I don't like Ell a NOR but I do like Ella nah.

Love it. You can't go wrong with a classic name IMO.

Thanks everyone! We like Eleanor and not a nn

Eleanor is beautiful

DS9 would have been an Elinor but he has a penis so we thought better of it!

Eleanor is lovely and I agree it's best in full, no shortening needed.

I wanted that for dd, but then my BIL called his son Johann a year earlier, grrr Intrigued by this! What's the connection?

Love it! I have one and she is only ever Eleanor never Ellie.

I love Eleanor, hate Ellie. Would shorten to Nell/Nellie myself but I'd be too worried about her being an Ellie eventually!

I have a ten year old Eleanor and we called her Ella has a nickname before it got really popular. Mainly because my dad was a massive jazz fan and loved Ella Fitzgerald. Anyway, she has never been Ellie but now sometimes uses Elle. It's a very versatile name. Go for it op!

I love Eleanor and love Elle, Ellie & Ella.

I love it. Wanted it for DD but DH had a friend called Ellie and he vetoed it! Beautiful, classic name.

Pretty name. Elena is also nice. I know someone with a child called Eleanor but when they call her they shout Elner. Now that really does ruin a lovely name .Very annoying to listen too also.

Beautiful classic name, my grandmother was Eleanor, she was called Nel for short....

What about Elaine. That's very unusual now.

I love it but there are a lot of them about.

Eleanor is ok but I find Elena much more feminine and beautiful.

Have to agree that there are a lot of Ellas and Ellies out there already.

I don't agree about Elaine. It's a good name and comes from the Arthurian myths. I think it will come back.
