What is Ellie short for?
| Mon, 06-11-2007 - 9:31pm |
Is there anything other than Ellen that the name Ellie could be short for? Also, what are your opinions on the name? What type of person do you picture when you hear the name Ellie?
Thanks!!

Ellie is short for virtually any name starting with El-. That includes Elena, Elizabeth, Eleanor, Ella, Ellery, etc. I've also seen it used twice as a nn for names ending in -ella, once for Gabriela and once for Isabella.
I think Ellie is a cute and popular nickname. There are so many Ellies, I don't really get a clear image when I hear the name, except for sweet and young.

The nn Ellie is very sweet and feminine, although it is getting popular. There have already been a lot of ideas listed, so I will just say that my favourite is Elena nn Ellie (or Lainey).
