[Opinions] how popular in Eloise in ur country/ state/ city?
Replies
Apparently it's rising in popularity in the US, but I've never met one.
Rare.
I’ve never met an Eloise. I’m in New Jersey, USA. Considering its rising popularity in the US, I’d be surprised if I didn’t know of a new baby with this name in the coming years.
I think it’s a lovely name but the only reason I’ve turned away from it over the years is because of the seeming inevitability of the nickname Ellie which I like a lot less.

I've never met anyone with this name, not heard of anyone with it. It's not used at all where I live, but apparently it is very popular in a neighboring province (in the top 100).
I love this name, it's so lyrical. I picture a little girl OR an old lady, someone very proper and polite, but with an independent streak. It comes across as posh. I must be influenced by the character of Eloise who lived in the New York Plaza hotel, but I don't remember ever actually watching or reading it.

interesting!
My impression of Eloise is probably influenced by the Heloise in Portrait of a Lady on Fire, so I never come across the Plaza girl image. But agree on the "proper and polite", I feel like an Eloise will be well educated, someone who's poetic or scholarly

In Spain the name isn't used at all, I guess only people with foreign origins would use it, so I've never met anyone with the name. There is a song from 1988 called "Eloise" by the Spanish singer Tino Casal, though. It's pretty famous in Spain, especially amongst older generations. Here's the link in case you'd like to hear it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xL5fYZigbUs
I'd picture an Eloise as a woman in her 20s or maybe even a teenager. Tanned or black skin, black curly hair, light eyes...
I used to hate the name Eloise but it has grown on me and now I really like it.

Heard about the song! its quite interesting considering "Eloise" wasn't even a popular name back then but contribute to a popular song.
I also feel like Eloise will be someone in youth but not small kids, or at least for the ones that go by their full name instead of "Ellie", which has an image of a little girl

I've heard Eloise on TV shows where I live. The characters are often little girls. For that reason, I see it as an innocent and playful name. It also sounds...fancy? I've never met an Eloise in real life. It's a nice name but I probably wouldn't use it. For whatever reason, it sounds really British to me.
We don't keep naming statistics in South Africa, so I've no idea. The only Eloise I know of is in her 60s. I like the name very much; prefer it to most El- names though Eleanor and Elizabeth are fine too.
ETA my mother came home one day, shaking her head: she'd met a woman at work named Heloise who pronounced it Hell-oiz.

Hi!
I'm from Italy so Eloise is a borrowed name in my country used mainly by people of foreign ancestry but recently used by people who simply likes it too.
In 1999 were born only 3 Eloise in Italy compared to 12 Eloisa so the Italian form was as rare as it actually.
In 2022 instead in Italy 52 Eloise and 16 Eloisa were born so Eloise is currently more popular than Eloisa.
1 What age an Eloise would be in Italy? A newborn or a toddler.
2 An Eloise would be both a Nigerian baby and a blonde, Scandinavian-like baby too. I've never met one so she could have any feature.
3 I like both Eloise and Eloisa. I like that them are used but they aren't in my PNL. I much prefer Héloïse rather than them.
Hope to be helpful :)
