[Opinions] Re: Ella or Ellen? (more)
in reply to a message by Lily
I like Ellen better. I think Ella sounds like a nickname... it's sort of light and fluffy, whereas Ellen has some weight.
I don't know that Ellen will make a comeback in the near future if it hasn't already. El- names are popular, and so are -en endings.
I do not like Elle or Ellie as full names. I don't even like Elle as a nickname.
In order of preference (used as full names):
Eleanor, Ellen, Ella, Elaine, Ellie, Elle
I like Ellie quite a bit as a nickname, but not as a full name.
