We’re trying to narrow down some girl E names for our new little one who’s due in a few months. The rest of us have E names, so it’s important that this little one follows suit. Our son’s name is [name_u]Everett[/name_u]. We really like old fashioned names that can have a cute nickname, but not a too common nickname like [name_f]Ellie[/name_f] either. Which name do you prefer and why? Any other ideas?
My personal favorites and the ones I feel go well with [name_u]Everett[/name_u] are [name_f]Eleanor[/name_f] (much prefer this spelling) and [name_f]Eloise[/name_f].
I love the name [name_u]Everett[/name_u]! Definitely one of my top for boys.
[name_f]Etta[/name_f] ([name_f]Ettie[/name_f]) - I don’t like this one, reminds me of an old person.
[name_f]Eloise[/name_f] ([name_f]Lulu[/name_f]) - Seems to be climbing popularity, if that matters to you.
[name_f]Elinor[/name_f] ([name_f]Lina[/name_f]) - I love the nickname [name_f]Lina[/name_f]
[name_f]Edith[/name_f] ([name_f]Edie[/name_f]) - Also old.
[name_f]Esmeralda[/name_f] ([name_f]Essie[/name_f], [name_f]Esme[/name_f]) - I like this one although it is long. Why not name her [name_f]Esme[/name_f] right off the bat? I like [name_f]Esme[/name_f] a lot!
[name_f]Eloise[/name_f] gets my vote. It sounds great with [name_u]Everett[/name_u] and, like [name_u]Everett[/name_u], bridges the gap between old-fashioned and modern.
