[Opinions] Re: Elliott for a girl
in reply to a message by Entity
My sister loves Elliot for a girl. It's been her favorite girl's name ever since she watched Scrubs. She heard it and just felt like it was the perfect girl's name and that she'd use the nn's Elle and Ellie.
My sister really wants to have a daughter called Elle and Ellie. Her second favorite name for using those nn's is Eloise. My sister's and grandmother's mn is Louise so it is honoring.
Personally I think Elliot works for a girl since the ending sounds similar to names ending in -et / -ette but it isn't my style so I'd never use it.
If my sister ever has a daughter named Elliot I'd be happy with my little niece's name. But until my sister gets to a better place mentally that won't be happening.

Favorite Names:
Fiona, Leona, Serafina, Artemis, Hazel, Luna, Adelina, Callisto, Stella, Augustine, Frieda, Eleanor, Deirdre, Ursa, Citrina, Maple, Iris, Juniper.
Ciaran, Connor, Rowan, Cedar, Arthur, Magnus, Fionn, Theron, Xavier, Cedric, Teagan, Quinn, Adrian, Julian, Gavin, Gryphon, Taliesin.

A few years ago I would be answering that Elliot is a boys name.....period. But my name tastes are changing. I now kind of like some boy names for girls. My favorite would be Cody, Cameron and Elliot. But in reality I would probably never use them in real life. But I no longer cringe at these new uni sex names.
Sorry this was suppose to be in response to the OP. I have no idea how it ended up here. Guess I need to wake up!
