I’m very keen on the name “[name_f]Elodie[/name_f]” however many people mistake the pronunciation so I’m considering spelling it differently, like “[name_f]Elody[/name_f]” or something like that. Also I don’t have many middle names. Considering [name_f]Jade[/name_f], [name_f]Iris[/name_f], [name_f]Cordelia[/name_f], and [name_f]Cecelia[/name_f] as middle names, but i’m not sure. I really love astrology/space/greek mythology names, but they don’t need to fit into that category.
Elodie is so beautiful and vintage! I prefer the [name_f]Elodie[/name_f] spelling, and I would pronounce it “EL-oh-dee.” [name_f]Elody[/name_f] looks a bit made up to me, like [name_f]Melody[/name_f] without the “M.”
For a middle name, I think [name_f]Elodie[/name_f] [name_f]Jade[/name_f] would be lovely! Here are some other ideas:
[name_f]Elodie[/name_f] [name_f]Juno[/name_f]
[name_f]Elodie[/name_f] [name_f]Callisto[/name_f]
[name_f]Elodie[/name_f] [name_u]Calypso[/name_u]
[name_f]Elodie[/name_f] [name_f]Freya[/name_f]
[name_f]Elodie[/name_f] [name_f]Beatrice[/name_f]

[name_f]Elodie[/name_f] [name_f]Luna[/name_f]
[name_f]Elodie[/name_f] [name_f]Myra[/name_f]
[name_f]Elodie[/name_f] [name_u]Paris[/name_u]

[name_f]Elodie[/name_f] [name_f]Maren[/name_f]

I personally would pronounce [name_f]Elodie[/name_f] and [name_f]Elody[/name_f] the same so I’m not sure. I also don’t think [name_f]Elodie[/name_f] is hard to pronounce. What pronunciation are you going for versus how are people mispronouncing it? I just want to offer better spelling advice if needed but I think you could spell it either way!
I like [name_f]Elodie[/name_f] [name_f]Cordelia[/name_f]- that’s really pretty.

I showed a couple people and they said it as
“[name_f]El[/name_f] O [name_f]Dee[/name_f]” and I say it as “[name_f]El[/name_f] Uh [name_f]Dee[/name_f]”/“[name_f]Ella[/name_f] [name_f]Dee[/name_f]”. Now that I’m saying it aloud and typing it out they’re really not that different in pronunciation, I’ll probably just use the [name_f]Elodie[/name_f] spelling since [name_f]Elody[/name_f] is just [name_f]Melody[/name_f] without the M.
I have heard it as [name_f]El[/name_f]-oh-dee but I like [name_f]El[/name_f]-uh-dee. Thats really pretty. Im not sure if its pronounced differently in different places maybe? I would just spell it [name_f]Elodie[/name_f] as it looks better visually to me!
I know it’s pronounced differently in [name_f]France[/name_f], but we don’t really have any [name_u]French[/name_u] relations in the family so that doesn’t concern me. And yes I agree that [name_f]Elodie[/name_f] does look much better visually. Thank You!
I like [name_f]Elodia[/name_f] just how it is. I personally think people will mispronounce the name no matter what it is. [name_f]My[/name_f] friend [name_m]Alexander[/name_m] has had his name mispronounced.
However if you want to spell differently for sake of clarity may I suggest
Elodee or Elodi
Elody looks incorrect to me (
)
I really do like the look of the spelling Elodi, will definitely consider it

Same that’s my favorite alternate spelling
I’d stick with [name_f]Elodie[/name_f]. I’ve met a couple and no one had trouble pronouncing it. [name_f]Elodie[/name_f] [name_f]Iris[/name_f] is nice

Elody will get more misspelled than [name_f]Elodie[/name_f] gets mispronounced. And I can’t see how it changes the pronunciation. I’d stick with [name_f]Elodie[/name_f].

Elodie [name_f]Jade[/name_f] is a pretty name. I would pronounce [name_f]Elodie[/name_f] EL-oh-dee, and I think that spelling looks a lot better than [name_f]Elody[/name_f].
I personally think changing the spelling to [name_f]Elody[/name_f] would make MORE people pronounce it incorrectly because I think most people know how [name_f]Elodie[/name_f] is pronounced and would assume it was different if spelt [name_f]Elody[/name_f]… I also really don’t like the way it looks, [name_f]Elodie[/name_f] is such a pretty name as it is…
Stick with the [name_f]Elodie[/name_f] spelling.
