it's cute. It's extremely overused. I know many Ellie's. Most, however, have the full name Eliana. I know it's a nickname for Eleanor as well.

Ellie is actually really popular right now, which could be good or bad depending on your perspective. My DD actually is named Eleanor and we often call her Ellie - we figured Eleanor is better for resume purposes, and it gives her more options - Ellie, Ella, Nora, El, etc.

I wouldn't have the first name and last name rhyme (the -ly sound)

Love love love it! Would live to use it ourselves if we have a girl.

Don't really care for it. Sounds too cutesy.

Very cute. My DD has a friend "Ellie" and it suits her perfectly.

There's already an Elyse and an Elena in the family so those got nixed.

DH also loves Olive.


Ellie Presley sounds exactly like Elvis Presley.


No, it doesn't. Please note the difference between ElLIE Presley and ElVIS Presley.


My thoughts exactly...

I love it! Adorable and also unique. I have a friend who recently named their son Ellis. Which I also love for a boys name. Both are super cute.

I would go with Elise. We have an Ellie and there are no others in her grade (now in middle school). The teachers are always mispronouncing it and saying "E-Lie" so I don't think it's that popular.

If I ever have another baby (doubtful) and it's a girl, the name would be Eliana, nn Ellie. Maybe that would go better with Presley than Elle?
