Re: Wdyt of Elias?
in reply to a message by Cristi-es
I've been thinking about it a lot lately. Probably because I like the name Eli, but feel it's on the nicknamey side. I want to like it, but I'm not 100% sold on it for some reason even though it has all the right ingredients to be a name that I would like.
- not uncommon, but not too "out there"
- ends with an s (I love boy names that end with an s)
- starts with "Eli" which I like
- not difficult for those unfamiliar with the name to pronounce
I think it sounds a little snobby actually, and maybe a bit nerdy but not in a good way. Like, an over-the-top, I'm better than you, personality would accompany it. I don't know. It's a weird one for me.
