Which name do you think is best?
[name_f]Elodie[/name_f] or [name_f]Luella[/name_f].
[name_f]Luella[/name_f] is an old favourite but am now leaning towards [name_f]Elodie[/name_f], which would you choose?
[name_f]Elodie[/name_f]. [name_m]Don[/name_m]'t like [name_f]Luella[/name_f] at all.
[name_f]Elodie[/name_f] would be my choice. [name_f]Elodie[/name_f] is [name_f]Luella[/name_f]'s classier, smarter, prettier sister.
[name_f]Luella[/name_f]! I know [name_f]Elodie[/name_f] is a well-loved name at nameberry, but I think [name_f]Luella[/name_f] is so charming. [name_f]Elodie[/name_f] is a pretty name but it doesn’t excited me. [name_f]Luella[/name_f] is so darling. I don’t know why its so often overlooked. I love [name_f]Lulu[/name_f] and [name_f]Lula[/name_f] as nicknames.
[name_f]Elodie[/name_f] for me.
I tend to find the ‘oo’ sound in names unattractive. So even though I like the ‘ella’ part of [name_f]Luella[/name_f], the ‘lu’ part puts me off.
Definitely [name_f]Elodie[/name_f]. I think it is becoming far more popular thanks to nameberry and similar sites, but I would still pick it over [name_f]Luella[/name_f]. [name_f]Luella[/name_f] just seems hard to say or doesn’t flow right or something…(although [name_f]Lulu[/name_f] is an adorable nickname!)
[name_f]Elodie[/name_f]. I don’t know why, but [name_f]Luella[/name_f] sounds hickish to me.
[name_f]Elodie[/name_f] is my pick, if pronounced the [name_m]French[/name_m] way of Ey-Low-[name_f]Dee[/name_f]. If it’s the English way, then I’d go for [name_f]Luella[/name_f]. [name_f]Luella[/name_f]'s cute in the sense of it being a Southern name with the adorable nickname of [name_f]Ella[/name_f].
I really like both but if I had to pick it would be [name_f]Elodie[/name_f].
I like [name_f]Luella[/name_f], although I’m sure most here will pick [name_f]Elodie[/name_f].
I like them both. However, [name_f]Luella[/name_f] feels a bit fresher to me (perhaps partly because [name_f]Elodie[/name_f] seems to be a [name_u]Berry[/name_u] favorite) so I think I prefer [name_f]Luella[/name_f].
Thank you all for the replies! [name_f]Elodie[/name_f] seems more well liked, and also my husband’s favourite so looks like [name_f]Luella[/name_f] might be out for now. We did like the suggestion of [name_f]Lula[/name_f] for a nickname though!
[name_f]Elodie[/name_f] definitely. Not a fan of [name_f]Luella[/name_f].
