I like the name
Elise ... on paper, and for a character.
But used in real life, my impression of it is that it sounds super stuckup. It sounds like the word "elite," has the same smugness that
Emily has, and the same bossy quality
Lisa has. IMHO. I was dismayed to discover I felt that way about it, when I met a young
Elise. And she was nice ... I just didn't like the way the name came across. It's a fine name, just nmsaa.
rating; 2.5
Audrey Elise and
Clara Elise both sound fine, but
Audrey is my preference.
