Yeah, I'm right there with you. Ellen has been hitting just the right notes for me lately, too. I do prefer Ellen to Eleanor, but not to the less frequently used spelling Elinor, which sometimes visits my No. 1 spot for females.

I feel like with Ellen, to make it really musical-sounding as a combo, you should choose a middle name with three or four syllables with the tonic stress on the second syllable. Examples:

---

Ellen Susannah
Ellen Matilda
Ellen Rebecca
Ellen Eugenia
Ellen Virginia
Ellen Sophia
