Thoughts on Ellery?

Telyco

Just spotted it in a book...too trendy sounding? Don't think it could actually be trendy since I've never heard it before.

We're having a rough, rough time picking out a girl name. Well, one that we both love anyway.

Thanks!

**MrsD**

All I can think of is celery.  Sorry!

I like it. Doesn't seem trendy to me,

Ditto celery.

Telyco

I did think of celery when I first saw it too. But...I've been thinking of the name since and it hasn't crossed my mind again...iow, it isn't a nagging concern of mine. It is something to think about, though.

I like it.

Ditto "celery"; makes it hard for me to take it seriously as a name. Sorry.

I told DH the same thing - we both like Avery but my cousin named her daughter that.

Not sure bout that one. Maybe Elle

Celery all the way, or like you wanted to name your daughter "Elle" or "Ellen" but thought you had to be different.  Don't like.

My 1st thought was it's missing something. My next thought was celery.

Not a fan, sorry.

I like it.  And I didn't think of celery.

First thought was celery. Sorry.

Celery

How about Emery? It's similar but without the veggie sound

I know an girl named Ellery (she's in her 20s), but most people call her Elle. I don't care for the name.?

abba916

i like this name.  it's my husband's middle name and his grandfather's first name.

It sounds like someone made up a name by combining two names.
