Elvie

[upsideup]

What do you think of the name Elvie? (girls name)

Elfie = Elfreda

Elvie could be the diminutive of Elvira

LV - insurance company

I clicked on the thread before I saw it is in 'baby names'. I was hoping for feedback on the pelvic toner! sorry!

I'm not a fan. It sounds like a nickname, rather than a name in its own right.It's way too cutesy too. I could see it on a pet, but not on a child. Sorry. It's a fab nickname for Elvira or something.

It'll seem rather odd to be called Elfie if she turns out to be of Amazonian stature as an adult.

Totally read it as Evie and was coming to comment on its popularity.... she would definitely have that problem

It’s cute but the four (!!) Elvies I know are short for Elvina. It’s a very popular traveller name where I live.

Elvie is a cute nickname:)

Could be short for Alva or Elvira.

I knew an Elfie...nn for Eleanora. She was small, cute and blonde. And a really sweet person.

I find Elvie very sweet as a nickname for Elvira. On its own, not so much.

Elvis, Elf and Evie all merged into one. Not a nice name.

Would you consider the Irish name Alvy instead?

I know two of them, born late 60s. It's an anglicisation of Ailbhe.

I nearly used Elva and wish I had
