Hello, yesterday I came across the name Ellington while watching the puppy bowl with my mom, and we thought the name was cute for an actual human. I mean it’s not that much of different to be naming a Leighton or Ellington, imo. But what are your thoughts on it? What are your thoughts on Ellington Briar and Briar Ellington, and which one do you prefer? And any more combo suggestions you have, is really appreciated, TIA!
I think [name_u]Ellington[/name_u] works for a girl in much the same way [name_u]Leighton[/name_u], [name_u]Brighton[/name_u], [name_u]Emerson[/name_u], and [name_u]Ellison[/name_u] do. In fact, I like it better than -son names for girls. Elllington [name_u]Briar[/name_u] is really pretty but [name_u]Briar[/name_u] [name_u]Ellington[/name_u] works too (even though it sounds a bit like a first name last name combo). Other ideas:
[name_u]Ellington[/name_u] [name_f]Mae[/name_f]
[name_u]Ellington[/name_u] [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f]
[name_u]Ellington[/name_u] [name_f]Rose[/name_f]
[name_u]Ellington[/name_u] [name_f]Jane[/name_f]
[name_u]Ellington[/name_u] [name_u]Marie[/name_u]

I really like [name_u]Ellington[/name_u]! I would love to meet a child named [name_u]Ellington[/name_u], so I would have to say I like the combo [name_u]Ellington[/name_u] [name_u]Briar[/name_u], but I’m now thinking that [name_u]Briar[/name_u] [name_u]Ellington[/name_u] flows better. I’m seconding the suggestions of [name_u]Ellington[/name_u] [name_f]Maude[/name_f], I think it sounds really nice.

I like the alliteration of two names beginning with an E together or [name_u]Ellington[/name_u] with a name beginning with another vowel. [name_f]Ellie[/name_f], [name_f]Ellen[/name_f] or [name_f]Ellin[/name_f] could be a nickname.

[name_m]Hi[/name_m] there.
I don’t think that it’s unpleasant & I love [name_f]Ellie[/name_f] names in general. It’s just a bit masculine & last name-y for my tastes. I like it much better for a mn. [name_u]Briar[/name_u] [name_u]Ellington[/name_u] flows really well.
A few ideas with [name_u]Ellington[/name_u] as a middle name:
[name_f]Audrey[/name_f] [name_u]Ellington[/name_u]
[name_f]Lucy[/name_f] [name_u]Ellington[/name_u]
[name_f]Maeve[/name_f] [name_u]Ellington[/name_u]
[name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_u]Ellington[/name_u]
[name_f]Phoebe[/name_f] [name_u]Ellington[/name_u]
[name_u]Ruby[/name_u] [name_u]Ellington[/name_u]
Also, the puppy bowl & kitten half time show are the best, aren’t they?! 
[name_f]Hope[/name_f] this helps!
