HelpElzie
Do you like this spelling of Elsie? I don't care if you like the name, I just want to know about the spelling.

Elsa / Elsie is one of my favorite names. I don't care for the 'z" spelling. I suppose if Elzbieta (sp?) were the formal name, then it would make sense.

I don't care for it, sorry
Elsie's very, very uncommon nowadays anyway. I don't think it needs to be "uniquefied" by altering it's spelling.
Elsie's also the name of my grandmother's next-door neighbour, and arguably her best friend. Elsie must be in her 70s too, though I've never asked her age.

Not really ... But I don't consider it a "spelling" difference because I pronounce them differently. Elzie would be cute as a nn for Elizabeth-with-a-Z. Elsie works for Elisabeth or Elspeth.

No, because
Elsie is pronounced el-see. If I saw Elzie I would think it was pronounced el-zee. Unless you plan on pronouncing it el-zee it seems like more trouble than it is worth.

I do pronounce it El-Zee

No, I don't like the spelling ELZIE. The two names would be pronounced differently to me, seeing as one has an "s" and the other a "z". I do like Elsie, though.

I like the spelling Elsea. I don't know why. It's just...different...

No, I don't care for the spelling. It just looks like you were seeking out a spelling to make the name "different." Changing the spelling of a name does not change the name or popularity, etc. It looks tacky to me, and with the way it sounds, I think of the word sleazy.

I like Elise too, but....
Elise is a different name. Any way Elise is one of my favorite names also.

I think its a unique spelling and to my eye I see Elise. So I would'nt have a problem pronouncing it. Any name combos in mind to use it with?
