What about the name Eloise?

Re: What about the name Eloise?

  • I'm sorry I don't like it at all.  The "eeese" sound is just not feminine to me.

  • I love Eloise!!!

    love love LOVE the name...... but getting tired of all the Elle,Eli,Ellie's running around-- such a common nickname kind of defeats the purpose of a nickname, doesn't it? LOL.... but I like the name. I like the books too :-)

    I agree.

  • It's definitely not one I've heard recently. I guess I can see it as one of the "old lady" names that could possibly make a comeback. I don't have a strong feeling either way - don't love it, but don't hate it either.

  • I love this name, but i would skip the nickname. I am not a fan of let's name them this but call them that or planning a nickname.

  • I LOVE it!  I mentioned it to DH for our "hypothetical" DD #2, but he's not a fan.  I'm glad someone will use it!  :)

    It is on my short list if we have a girl! I have been obsessed with it for awhile now.

  • It's also on my short list. I grew up with a family friend named Eliose, but we called her Eli, like eee-lie...or Loze...don't ask me why.

    I picked Eloise to honor my grandmother who was Emma Louise. I wanted something in that spirit, but Emma is overdone.

  • My DD's name is Eloise, so of course I am biased! We usually call her Eloise, but occasionally use cutesy nicknames when we are playing with her like Ellie Belly and Weezy,

  • My DD is named Eloise, so I obviously love the name :)
