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

2 actually. A 6 year old and a 9 year old. It's their actual name, not short for anything.

It's a wonderful baby name, but I am biased Bear
I know a baby Nell and a 9 year old plus met one while looking round a nursery last week, about 2 yrs old.

I hope it doesn't become too popular!

One Fenella\ nell in her late twenties.

I love the name Nell. It’s beautiful.

One toddler Nell

Two, both adult.

One is just Nell and the other is Danielle.

I wouldn’t use it as a full name on a birth certificate but it works as a nn for Helen, Helena, Eleanor or Penelope.

One, she's 7.

None. I love it, especially short for Eleanor.

Two. One age 3, one in her thirties. It's their full name.
