How many Nells do you know?

[Susannach]

As a full name or nickname? Is it going to get very popular?

I know a Nell (full name) and she's 6.

Wow, lots of responses and not too many Nells! Great

So no one thinks it’s goinv to get hugely popular? I’ve been hearing it a fair bit out and about lately but I do love it.

April your Nell is a beauty!

None but it was my favourite name (just Nell) for my last child - we had a boy!! I still think it’s a beautiful name.

One 13yo, full name Cornelia.

I know one 7yo and Nell is her full name.

I have one. Best name ever. And she’s the only one I have met

It’s not her full name, that’s nellicy but we generally call her Nell.

Just my own .

She is 6 and her full name is Nell , not short for anything . Often known as Nelly . I think it's a beautiful name

None

1, my niece. She is called Nellie but shortened to Nell a lot. She's coming up 4 months old.

None, only in history!

I have one - she's two. Full name Helena but know as Nell or Nelly.

None.

My gran’s sister (sadly long gone) and a toddler. I like it.

One, Nellandra.

Two. A 2 year old and a 3 year old.

One aged 6, her parents are Polish so I presume it is more popular there.

Lovely simple name.

One. And I really wanted it for DD but was vetoed (nelly the elephant). Sigh. My husband was very worried about nicknames.

Just the one - about my age (in her 40s), a librarian with multicoloured hair - she rocks!

One, in second year of university, it's her full name.

(She's 20/21)

I came across one the other night - I think she used to be known as Neil

I also know a dog called Nell

I don’t know any but I love it. If we’d had a girl she would have been Ellen after my grandmother.

One from primary school so she'd be late 20s now. It was her middle name but she went by it all the time, first name was Rachel if I remember correctly.
