Elias is a great name, but Elias + Scott run in to each other, so if you say "Elias Scott" it can sound a bit like you're saying "Elia Scott" or "Elias Cott".
I don't like Trenton.
I actually find Idabel quite endearing, my great-great-grandfather's brother married a woman named Mary Idabel, and discovering her in my extended family tree was the first time I'd ever come across the name. I thought maybe her parents had got creative, but a quick search on Ancestry, revealed that it was very much a real name.
So yeah, I like it, and my g-g-grandfather's sister-in-law must have liked it somewhat, as she passed it on as a middle name to her firstborn daughter (but didn't pass on her first name, Mary to any of her daughters). It makes me wonder if she perhaps went by Idabel.
