[Opinions] Re: Eleanor.
in reply to a message by Jen
A friend of mine was considering Eleanor for her dd. She would have used the nn Ellie. But in the end she opted for Julia. The child is about six years old now. She lives in California, U.S.The only other Eleanor that I know is in her teens by now. She lives in Washington State, U.S. I like both the Eleanor and Elinor spellings. Eleanor feels more classic and calm. Elinor feels more artsy and fairy-tale-ish. It just depends on which feeling I want to convey in a particular combination or sibling set.
