Re: Elinor, Genevieve and Grace
Genevieve and Grace are both beautiful names, and I love them with a sister named Miriam. Grace Judith Cecilia is a great combo. I love Eleanor but don't like Elinor at all. It looks odd and dumbed-down to me, like Eleanor was too hard for the user to spell (not that I think that's why you like it, that's just the vibe it gives off IMO).

I love the spelling of Elinor because it has a medieval vibe to me. It has a cleaner, prettier look as well. I'm glad you like Grace Judith Cecilia. It would be solve the problem of having my daughter share a first name with an unlikable family member

Hmm, I'll have to ponder Elinor and medieval-ness. Maybe you'll convert me.Grace Judith Cecilia is a lovely combination of light (Grace) and grounded (Judith). Cecilia's a bit of both so it works perfectly. :D

Perhaps.I do worry about the spelling - she'd have to spend her life correcting people. I'm not sure why but I just don't like the spelling Eleanor.
