I know I asked something similar in the past. But I just can't shake how much I love
Eli for a first name. I just do. I always loved the name
Eli and
Elijah. Now my husbands middle name is
Elijah and my Son
Javan's middle name is
Elijah. Now to me even though
Eli and
Elijah are related. They are still completely different names. And not everyone knows someones middle name. If you check the database
Eli is it's own free standing name aside from
Elijah which is also it's own free standing name. So they aren't the same name. They just are close as names.
So would it really be that bad if I had a son in the future and named him
Eli for his first name?
Be as blunt and honest as possible. Because I really want your opinions. I just can't help that I love the name. I don't want to be distastful in my name choices. I just love this name as a first name is all.
