I prefer Elliot
Congratulations Flowers

I misread as George Elliott, but I am not sure that would be a problem as most people don't use their middle names often. I like them both (not helpful)!

DrivingMeDaisy · 11/06/2017 20:57

Elliot - lovely name!

Sophronia · 11/06/2017 21:02

Russell

OwlsinTowls · 11/06/2017 21:04

Elliot George is so handsome.

Sugarpiehoneyeye · 11/06/2017 21:31

Russell George, great choice !

TheGirlOnTheLanding · 11/06/2017 21:46

Russell George, you don't get many Russells.

Defo Elliot

Oo, Russell! Lovely underused name.

buttercup54321 · 11/06/2017 23:33

Russell George. Lovely.

Congratulations! Elliott George is lovely Smile

Alyx80 · 11/06/2017 23:35

Elliot!

blahthisistoohard · 12/06/2017 00:14

Elliot, Russell not a very nice name imo!

I really like Elliott, but I also really like Russell although I have slightly personal reasons for that. I also think Russ is kinda cool for a shortened version, Elliot doesn't have an obvious nickname.
Excellent taste in names OP Grin

Elliot.

I don't like Russell at all. It reminds me of Russell Crowe who's an obnoxious wanker exempt of any talent.

ShmooBooMoo · 12/06/2017 01:15

Elliot (though I can't say that without putting on my best ET voice!) Russell sounds too much like rustle and makes me think of Russell Grant, Russell Brand and Rusell Harty Grin

Had you considered Emile. Emile George?

17caterpillars1mouse · 12/06/2017 10:23

Love Russell nn Russ

Elliot is also lovely. It was on my list but glad we didn't use it as we now no 4 under 1 in our small town.

FreeNiki · 12/06/2017 22:11

Elliot

Dawnedlightly · 12/06/2017 22:16

If you name his Elliot George, you must read he books. Because people will ask. A dear relative was coincidentally given a famous fictional name and was very irritated whenever anyone asked and her mum said, no it's after a horse. Shock
Until she read the book which is rubbish apparently Grin
