Feminine Middle Name for Elliott

categ · May 8, 2015, 9:23pm

Hubby and I both really like [name_u]Elliott[/name_u] for a girl, and are looking for some ideas for middle names. Because [name_u]Elliott[/name_u] can be masculine, I’d love a very feminine middle name. Any help? Surname is [name_m]Griffin[/name_m], for guidance

[name_u]Elliot[/name_u] [name_m]Griffin[/name_m] is fantastic…for a boy. I don’t see the appeal on girls. [name_m]How[/name_m] about:

I don’t usually like boys names for girls, but this one I’m fine with for some reason. Although they’re quite common middles, I think [name_u]Elliott[/name_u] [name_f]Rose[/name_f] and [name_u]Elliott[/name_u] [name_f]Grace[/name_f] add femininity to the name. With a 3 syllable first name, I like a one syllable middle. [name_u]Elliott[/name_u] [name_f]Jane[/name_f] or [name_u]Elliott[/name_u] [name_f]Kate[/name_f] I like too.

[name_f]Remember[/name_f] that most people never know what a person’s middle name is so it is fine to give her a feminine middle, but most will still assume she is a boy seeing her name on paper, or not seeing her in person; e.g., you saying “Oh, I drive [name_u]Elliott[/name_u] to school.”

[name_u]Elliott[/name_u] [name_f]Leanne[/name_f]
[name_u]Elliott[/name_u] [name_f]Jane[/name_f]

[name_u]Elliott[/name_u] [name_f]Camille[/name_f]
[name_u]Elliott[/name_u] [name_f]Delphine[/name_f]
[name_u]Elliott[/name_u] [name_f]Lucille[/name_f] (My favorite!)
[name_u]Elliott[/name_u] [name_f]Michelle[/name_f]

Best of luck!

[name_u]ELLIOTT[/name_u]
I 'd be inclined to reverse things & make it apparent that the child is indeed feminine. [name_f]Emily[/name_f] [name_u]Elliott[/name_u], [name_f]Danielle[/name_f] [name_u]Elliott[/name_u], [name_f]Scarlett[/name_f] [name_u]Elliott[/name_u], [name_f]Emma[/name_f] [name_u]Elliott[/name_u], [name_f]Janine[/name_f] [name_u]Elliott[/name_u], [name_f]Louise[/name_f] [name_u]Elliott[/name_u], [name_f]Kate[/name_f] [name_u]Elliott[/name_u], [name_f]Sienna[/name_f] [name_u]Elliott[/name_u], [name_f]Chantelle[/name_f] [name_u]Elliott[/name_u], [name_u]Kieran[/name_u] [name_u]Elliott[/name_u], [name_f]Beth[/name_f] [name_u]Elliot[/name_u], [name_f]Rose[/name_f] [name_u]Elliot[/name_u], [name_f]Rosemarie[/name_f] [name_u]Elliott[/name_u] or [name_f]Claire[/name_f] [name_u]Elliott[/name_u]
I’m not a fan of surnames used as first names. It seems to work a bit better for boy’s names

rkrd · May 9, 2015, 7:07pm

I’d opt for Elliette–a legitimate girl’s name that sounds quite similar. Elliette [name_f]Sabine[/name_f], Elliette [name_f]Lorraine[/name_f], Elliette Catiche ([name_m]French[/name_m] diminutive for [name_f]Catherine[/name_f]).

opelle · May 9, 2015, 7:10pm

[name_u]Ellis[/name_u]
[name_f]Eliana[/name_f]
?

[name_u]Elliot[/name_u] [name_f]Musetta[/name_f]
[name_u]Elliot[/name_u] [name_f]Adelaide[/name_f]
[name_u]Elliot[/name_u] [name_f]Eulalie[/name_f]

Good [name_m]Luck[/name_m]!

[name_u]Elliott[/name_u] is one of the few traditionally boy names I like on girls, namely due to Dr [name_u]Elliott[/name_u] [name_u]Reed[/name_u] from Scrubs. I have an internal battle with myself frequently about why names need to be gendered. There are no attributes I would want in a daughter but not in a son, and vice versa, so why should I have to make sure people know what gender my child is? Maybe they’ll be gender fluid? Or trans? Or androgynous? Anyway, RANT OVER.

Go for [name_u]Elliott[/name_u].

I love [name_u]Elliot[/name_u] [name_m]Griffin[/name_m]… For a boy. It doesn’t sound feminine at all and [name_u]Elliot[/name_u] is a boy name. It comes from [name_m]Eli[/name_m], it’s a variant of [name_m]Elijah[/name_m]. Definitely not feminine. [name_f]Eliette[/name_f] is a girl name though.
[name_u]Elliot[/name_u] looks ridiculous on a girl to me, sorry. I would keep thinking that the parents wanted a boy.
I understand people can like a boy name on a girl but giving a name is another step and living with a boy name is definitely not easy.

I would give [name_f]Eliette[/name_f] or find another name.

OpheliaFlora · June 22, 2015, 6:31am

[name_u]Elliott[/name_u] cannot be masculine it IS masculine.
I agree on going with [name_f]Eliette[/name_f] or even Elliotte like that one actress did, they seem a lot fairer to give to a girl than [name_u]Elliott[/name_u], especially when the last name is also a boys first name.
