ellen rose?

[milkgoddessmakesthefinestmilk]

posting for a friend.

what do you think?

i said i'd worry about folk thinking her names helen, but people are dropping the H

lovely

her dp thought it up after leeds football club ellen road.

I like that.

Ellen is more fashionable than Helen, so it wouldn't occur to me that the name was Helen if I heard Ellen..

Ellen Rosemary nice too.

And Ellen's a name that has been around for hundreds of years. So don't understand the 'ooh, but it sounds as if you've got Helen wrong' line of argument. Helen's only become popular in this country relatively recently.

Very nice.

It's fine. Ellen is a nice name.

Do they live in Leeds? Are there many Leeds supporters round their neck of the woods?

our area is n.london so e have a few mockneys

thanks mmj i wasn't too sure of the spelling.

not many leeds supports around these parts no

Nobody says that Anna is Hannah wrong. I prefer Anna to Hannah, I prefer Ellen to Helen. Just my taste though of course.

oh yes we all[well us here] prefer ellen to helen, but just wondering about confusion

very nice

Leeds is the onyl thing that comes to my mind

polar bear, you worked it out.
so do you like it ?

like it very much

Well my parents neighbours daughter called her dd that a few years ago. I REALLY like the names but I'm not keen on 'gimmick' iyswim. on the other hand if there's no link with leeds I would like it better - illogical I know!

oh ive just been asked to post, what about all the hell and back type jokes?

there must be loads of hell jokes?

I think ellen is quite a common name (common in a good way), haven't heard any of that type of joke

Very pretty. You could call her Ellie Rose too

pretty name.

Love it.

DD is called Eleanor Rose and she prefers the full version rather than Ellie, although we did use this as a baby.

She has also had no problems with spelling it.

We do sometimes use the nickname Els Bels but she doesn't seem to mind.

Beautiful
