Elfie

[justbeenforapromenade]

I love - and you?

dd just wouldn't be an overweight or spotty teenager seeker - and even if she were, at least she might have a pretty name!! Good grief, Elfie is hardly Tinkerbell or Mittens is it? I didn't actually say I had chosen to name a future dd this, but I do know of other very lovely, balanced girls with the same name. Someone has to take the plunge and be ahead of the crowd - deja vu?
Good study name in my opinion

Actually I'm not sure that Elfie is much better than Tinkerbell (or Fifi perhaps). It makes me think of Citizen Smith (Wolfie/Foxie, and not in a good way). I'm not sure I like it even as a nn, it just sounds a bit silly to me I'm afraid - the sort of name dd would have given her stuffies a few years ago (Sealie, Doggie, Lambie etc) if she had had an Elf shaped one. I guess you could pick Elfreda, but I think that Frieda or Winifred are nicer.

"Elfie is hardly Tinkerbell or Mittens is it?"

Ummm... yes!
To my mind it's exactly like those names. Sorry.

(runs and hides)

No No No!

Far too twee.

Can you imagine her striding confidently into a board room with a name like Elfie?

People will think it's supposed to be Elsie, and they've misheard/ you can't pronounce your "s"es properly .
