Elkien

[name_f]Do[/name_f] like the name [name_m]Elkin[/name_m] ? I’ve seen other spellings like Elkien. Which do prefer? I have Elkien [name_m]Atticus[/name_m] on my list and did a poll on the poll thread.

If you had a Elkien what middle name would you use? What sibling names? Nicknames?

I like Ellkie for a nickname :black_heart::cherry_blossom::purple_heart::blossom:🩵

[name_m]Elkin[/name_m] is cute, but I think [name_m]Elkin[/name_m] [name_m]Atticus[/name_m] sound a little to similar.

personally I would use [name_m]Elkin[/name_m] [name_m]Joseph[/name_m] [name_m]Jay[/name_m]

Summary

I quite like it, I think because it reminds me of [name_m]Tolkien[/name_m] which I love. I’m not sure if I’d personally use [name_m]Elkin[/name_m] but I’d honestly love to see this one someone else’s child. I like both spellings but [name_m]Elkin[/name_m] probably just wins out for me due to the simplicity of the name & prn. this way. [name_m]Elkin[/name_m] [name_m]Atticus[/name_m] isn’t terrible but it isn’t standing out or appealing to me either, sorry.

[name_m]Elkin[/name_m] is nice! I would definitely go with the more straightforward [name_m]Elkin[/name_m] spelling, just for simplicity’s sake. The nickname Elkie is cute! Alternatives could be [name_f]El[/name_f], [name_f]Ellie[/name_f], Elk, or even [name_m]Ken[/name_m]. [name_m]Elkin[/name_m] [name_m]Atticus[/name_m] works I think, but could be a bit difficult to say aloud without becoming a tongue twister, in my opinion.
