[name]Elsie[/name] is just adorable, it has that gorgeous vintage feel and it will suit every age from infant to pensioner :slight_smile:

I like [name]Elise[/name] and [name]Elsa[/name]. And [name]Elsie[/name] seems more of a nn or pet name so you could call her that. :).

1 [name]Elsa[/name] nn [name]Elsie[/name]
2 [name]Elise[/name]
3 [name]Elsie[/name]

I rated them by my preference without knowing what the mn or surname would be.

I like [name]Elise[/name] the most:) If you use [name]Elsa[/name], you could have [name]Elsie[/name] as a nickname - great bonus.

[name]Elsa[/name] with the nn [name]Elsie[/name].

I vote for [name]Elise[/name] nn [name]Elsie[/name]. [name]Elsa[/name] sounds very old lady-y to me.

I love all three names! [name]Elise[/name] is gorgeous, classy and timeless. [name]Elsie[/name] might be a little too cutesy, but I still like it. I do get comments that it is a “cow’s name”, though (my daughter’s name is [name]Elsa[/name] and I have some friends and family that are very vocal about not liking the potential nickname [name]Elsie[/name]). With [name]Elsa[/name], it seems to get a lot of love/hate…it is definitely very ‘old lady’ to many people. The first comment I generally get with her name is “Oh. (long pause) She must have been named after a your grandmother?” And then when I tell them No, we chose it simply because we liked it, I get a funny/confused look. It gets annoying that some people turn their nose up at her name, but I still love it. :slight_smile:

I voted for [name]Elise[/name], but I love [name]Elsa[/name] too! [name]Elsie[/name] is cute, but was easy to veto next to the others.
I think between [name]Elise[/name] & [name]Elsa[/name] it depends what you’re looking for. [name]Elise[/name] is crisp & classic while [name]Elsa[/name] is a bit more sophisticated & rare.

I love the name [name]Elsie[/name], I think it can definitely work on it’s own. My grandmother who passed away about 2 years ago carried this name with her all her life and she never had any problems. I might use it one day, right now it would be too soon to use it but maybe in the future. :slight_smile:

[name]Elsa[/name] is sooo beautiful and underused, and you still have [name]Elsie[/name] as a nn option, as well as [name]Elle[/name] and [name]Ellie[/name].
