I am suddenly head-over-heels loving the hugely popular name
Ella. I realized this yesterday while I was talking to my grandmother (
Alice), and she was talking about the woman who used to live by the field behind her house, her cousin
Ella, who was unmarried and wealthy; people called her “Miss
Ella.” I used to play in that field, and even though she had long passed before my birth, my cousins and I used be out in that field every day, which everyone called “Miss Ella’s.” Around 2005, they built a highway over that field, and we were all so forlorn and miss the beautiful buttercup-filled pasture that used to be there.
So,
Ella would be a lovely choice if I had a daughter. Though two of my close childhood friends have daughters named
Ella. It just seems perfect for me. I am not too deterred by popularity,
My grandmother’s cousin was
Ella Virginia. I would actually consider the full combo.
Would you consider
Ella?
