HelpRe: Eleanor & Zelda ...
in reply to a message by Ciarda
I absolutely love them both, but I prefer Elenor and Elenore to Eleanor and Elinor. Zelda I find especially attractive; while it was always on my long list, I never thought too much about it before you suggested it to me. :)
I think that if your Eleanor was a Nell or a Nora (or a Lennie!), it wouldn't be confusing at all to have Eleanor and Ella. As for Zelda and Velda...if you like Velda, you could play off the similarity as an homage to her! ;D Otherwise, I honestly don't think it's too confusing--Z and V have very different sounds. If it was Belda or Felda you liked, there would be significant possibilities of mixups, but Zelda doesn't seem too bad.
Zelda could be Zella or Zellie or Zel or Zed or Zeddie or Zedda as well as being Zelda, if nothing else.
I like Zelda Ruth, but I think that the R's in Eleanor and Ruth run into each other--not that that's necessarily a huge problem, says the girl who likes Elenore Rae! Ruth Eleanor would be darling, too.
