What do you think of this for a girl?
| Wed, 06-14-2006 - 1:11pm |
I'm beginning to think this little girl is never going to get a "real name" and "Baby Sister" is what we're going to put on the birth certificate! My DH and I saw the name Ellery a few months ago, and both commented that we liked it. We would probably call her Ellie. We're now 6 weeks away from the due date, and haven't really discussed names much since. So, I'm bringing up this name again and wanted to get your opinions. What do you all think of Ellery? No mn yet, although I'm considering Ellery Jo because my middle name (as well as my mom's) is Jo. Honest opinions please....
Thanks!

Oh! I like "Jo" with it!
I like Ellery and considered it (and a million other names) for my new baby girl-I didn't go with it tho because I couldn't stop saying it with a British accent KWIM? lol :) it sounds very British to me and there's nothing wrong with that at all I just changed my mind
will you be hyphenating Ellery Jo?
I say if you love it it doesn't matter what others think so go with it!
is just my preference. There are soooo many Ellie's out there.
I think Ellery is a great name!! I have to agree with the PP's though that there are a TON of Ellie's out there now. We have an Eliana, and we call her Ellie at home, but have started calling her Eliana when we are out because there are just too many Ellie's. There is one in our Gymboree class and her real name is Eli.
So, yeah, I love Ellery, but be prepared to call her Ellery if you run into too many Ellie's. Unless you want to chance her being Ellie A.
