Husband and I both love the nickname [name]Ellie[/name], however we are struggling with how to get to [name]Ellie[/name]…what full first name would we both love? He isn’t a fan of [name]Elowen[/name], [name]Eleanor[/name], [name]Eloise[/name]. You are all so good at this, please help!
[name]Eliana[/name]
[name]Ellen[/name]
[name]Elaina[/name]
[name]Elena[/name]
[name]Helena[/name]
[name]Ella[/name]
[name]Elaine[/name]
That’s all I can think of at the moment.
I love the name [name]Eliana[/name]… it soumds like a smoosh of [name]Ellie[/name] and [name]Anna[/name], but it is a name in it’s own right, too, which means “God has heard” according to other naming sites. There’s also:
[name]Elodie[/name]
[name]Elizabeth[/name] (it seems more far fetched to me, but it is often suggested here on NB)
[name]Eliza[/name]
[name]Nell[/name]
You can do a super search for girl names containing “el” and I’m sure you will get hundreds of options. 
[name]Helena[/name]
[name]Elizabeth[/name]
[name]Ella[/name]
[name]Ellen[/name]
[name]Elinor[/name] (different spelling, I don’t know if that’s pushing it)
[name]Penelope[/name]
[name]Amelia[/name]
[name]Delilah[/name]
My full name’s [name]Elizabeth[/name], but the whole reason I was named that was for the nickname [name]Ellie[/name] And I was also thinking the other day that [name]Ellie[/name] would work as a nickname for [name]Danielle[/name]
the only one i can think of that wasn’t mentioned is [name]Ellis[/name], [name]Elle[/name], and Elphaba (From Wicked haha)
[name]Giselle[/name], [name]Stella[/name], [name]Gabrielle[/name], [name]Maribel[/name], [name]Oriel[/name]/[name]Orielle[/name], [name]Ariel[/name], [name]Elsa[/name]
What about [name]Elliot[/name]? I’ve seen this on a little girl and thought it was adorable.
[name]Gizelle[/name] is pretty!
Sorry for any repeats!
[name]Eleanora[/name]
[name]Eleanor[/name]
[name]Elina[/name]
[name]Eliana[/name]
[name]Electra[/name]
[name]Elara[/name]
[name]Eluned[/name]
[name]Elsa[/name] (love!)
[name]Eleonora[/name]
[name]Elethea[/name]
[name]Elettra[/name]
[name]Elin[/name]
[name]Elisaveta[/name]
[name]Elisa[/name]
[name]Elise[/name]
[name]Elisabeth[/name]
[name]Elisabetta[/name]
[name]Elisha[/name]
[name]Eliza[/name]
[name]Ellen[/name]
[name]Ellery[/name]
[name]Eloise[/name]
[name]Elodie[/name]
[name]Eloisa[/name]
[name]Elowen[/name] (love!)
[name]Elysia[/name]
[name]Arielle/name
[name]Brielle/name
[name]Gabrielle/name
[name]Isabelle/name
[name]Marielle/name
Boy names that could work:
[name]Elliott[/name]
Eldyn/[name]Eldan[/name]
[name]Elia[/name]/h
[name]Eliakim[/name]
[name]Elihu[/name]
[name]Elias[/name]
[name]Ellis[/name]
[name]Ellington[/name]
[name]Ellison[/name]
If [name]Ellie[/name] is the name you love, why not just name her [name]Ellie[/name]? I don’t see a point in agonizing over a full name if you don’t plan to use it.
I love [name]Elizabeth[/name] and [name]Helena[/name], which have already been mentioned. My favourites that haven’t are [name]Camellia[/name]/[name]Camelia[/name] and [name]Melanie[/name]. I suppose [name]Felicity[/name] could work too.
I like [name]Elle[/name] the best, short simple and sweet. [name]Ellie[/name] is so cute for a little one but would probably get shortened to [name]Elle[/name] a lot as she grows up anyway so maybe the shorter one is better for the full name ([name]Elle[/name]) and the longer one for the nn ([name]Ellie[/name]) :).
