[name]Elijah[/name] nn [name]Eli[/name] is the best.

3

I prefer the [name]Elliott[/name] spelling.

4

I much prefer [name]Eli[/name] to [name]Eliot[/name]/[name]Eliott[/name] but I may be in the minority here on Nameberry. [name]Eli[/name] is a proper name so it doesn’t need any longer version. [name]Eli[/name] was a prophet in the Bible so the name has a lot of history.

5

I prefer [name]Elliot[/name] (this spelling.) It’s so handsome compared to [name]Eli[/name]. I can see why [name]Eli[/name] is appealing, but it’s a tad too short for me.

[name]Elliott[/name] (the spelling I prefer) works best in my opinion! you can use [name]Eli[/name] as a nickname!

7

I prefer [name]Elliot[/name], nickname [name]Eli[/name] if you’d like.

8

I think as a full name [name]Elliot[/name] matches your signature best. I however would prefer [name]Elijah[/name] nn [name]Eli[/name] instead.

9

If you pn [name]Eli[/name] the way you’d pn [name]Elliot[/name] ([name]El[/name]-i) it sounds to feminine as a nn for a boy for my liking. I think it’s better for [name]Elijah[/name] with the (E-li) pn.
