If you are going to call her [name_f]Ellie[/name_f] or [name_f]Lily[/name_f], I would name her [name_f]Ellie[/name_f] or [name_f]Lily[/name_f]. No need for a longer name. I have always been fond of [name_f]Ellie[/name_f]. I adore [name_f]Lily[/name_f], so [name_f]Lily[/name_f] gets my vote.

Thanks for your thoughts lovemysweeties.

I can’t decide which one I like more. [name_f]Lily[/name_f] seems more classic to me. But I like the option of shortening to one syllable with [name_f]Elle[/name_f]/[name_f]Ellie[/name_f].

I love both [name_f]Ellie[/name_f] and [name_f]Lily[/name_f]…in the end, I voted for [name_f]Lily[/name_f], because I feel like [name_f]Lily[/name_f] can stand on its own quite well. [name_f]Ellie[/name_f], imo, needs a formal name like [name_f]Eleanor[/name_f], [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f], [name_f]Elliana[/name_f], etc.

I love [name_f]Ellie[/name_f].

Thanks for the votes. I think I will make another poll with full name options too.

I think it’d depend on the full name, but for years I’ve really disliked (hated?) [name_f]Ellie[/name_f]–it’s sounded very whiny and blah to me, but I know of an adorable little [name_f]Eliora[/name_f] nn [name_f]Ellie[/name_f], which is seriously making [name_f]Ellie[/name_f] grow on me. In general, though, I love [name_f]Lily[/name_f], and can easily see me preferring that to [name_f]Ellie[/name_f]. I love pretty much all the long names for [name_f]Lily[/name_f], too–[name_f]Elisabeth[/name_f], [name_f]Lillian[/name_f], [name_f]Liliana[/name_f], [name_f]Lilia[/name_f], [name_f]Liliosa[/name_f], Lilikoi, etc., etc.

I adore [name_f]Ellie[/name_f]!
