[Opinions] Eliott
I favor this spelling, Eliott. It just seems stronger and more valiant to me. Elliot, to me, looks a bit weak by comparison, and I find Elliott only slightly better. What is your preferred spelling?

I prefer Elliott.
This spelling is dominant in France, presumably because the "-ot" ending is pronounced like "o" in French. I hate how it looks.

I like it but think Elliot looks fuller and fancier. I like it on both genders. I like El and Ellie as NNs! Elliott is also a good spelling, I can't decide if it's my fav one though.
Eliott looks like it's missing something to me. I prefer Elliott

Eliott looks unfinished. I've never seen it before, and I'd rather not see it again. Eliot isn't too bad and Elliott is fine.
I think you’ll be disappointed. This spelling is rising in popularity in a few places, and I see more. It’s just more au courant than the other aging forms. It’s good.
Elliot is the spelling I like best. Elliott seems overdone. Eliott is odd. And Eliot feels incomplete.
i like Elliott best
Maybe Elliott, after my favorite musician, Elliott Smith, as it is technically the original. Elliot is my younger brother's middle name after the boy from ET, so I thought that was the main spelling for a long time.

I prefer Elliott -- it feels "fuller," if you know what I'm saying. The others have substance, but they're like half-full glasses. Elliott is the only one that seems "correct" to me, but that's just my opinion.
