Ehllsyie as an alternative spelling of Elsie.. Thoughts?

[saltedpopcorn2]

DP suggested it but I think it's awful! Look dreadful lol and would condemn our poor DD to a lifetime of having to say "it's same as Elsie but spelt.... ". Argh!

Is this a piss take? God I hope so! 😂

No, it's awful!

That must be a pissccetakye.

Honestly? I would think that you and/or your DP were stupid.

He needs to find an alternative name if he wants to be different. A completely made-up spelling of an established name is just….as above…stupid.

Consider the origins/meaning of the name too (I am surprised how many people don’t). Re-spelling could be culturally insensitive.

Eeye thingcc ewe arrrr possssibli rite

Blame Lewyish Carrelle

Surely that's a cockeyed version of Elsie, not Elise?

Either way, nooooooooo.

And I need glasses....

Lovely OP

I can’t believe people are falling for this..

Interesting that most people assume the op's partner to be male...

Nooooo!

Ltb.

There is no alternative

She’d go through life with people thinking her parents are illiterate twits.

I have a friend called Kchorrah.

Her names Cora. It drives her bananas.

Why the fuck can't people just spell things normally?

Because they think they are speshal!

Bloody awful!

What a stupid prat.
Ridiculous!!!

Why not spell it El Sea, and say it's a Spanish name?

because Sea isn't pronounced See in Spanish.
El Sí, would look suitably Spanish, but I think El is masculine
