What do you think about the names start with 'El'?
Personally, it's not my taste, but I knew that names (Elaina, Eleanor, Elena, Eli, Eliana, Elias, Elijah, Ella, Elle, Ellie, Elliot, Ellis, Elodie, Eloise, Elora, Elsie) starting with el are popular these days, so I asked.

I think the El- sound is really pretty, but I definitely don't like every name that starts that way.
Love: Elena, Eliana, Elijah, Elliott, Elodie, Eloise, Elowen, Elsa, Elysia
Like/neutral: Elaina, Eli, Elias, Elina, Elise, Elizabeth, Elle, Elly, Elora
Dislike: Eleanor, Ella, Ellery, Ellie, Ellis, Elsie, ElviraI think El- is superior to Al- and Il-, though.
I like that sound because its soft. I like all that you listed except for Elsie and Elodie because I prefer Elsa and Melody way more. Also:
Ellison
Ellery
Eliora
Elenora
Eliza
Ellia
Eloisa
Ellia
Ellington
Elston
Um, is skibidi toilet a good name?
Surely No.
I a lot of names that begin with "El;" my only qualm is the nickname Ellie. Now, I love the name Ellie, but it's just so trendy where I am. My favorites:
Elise
Eleanor
Ellen
Elarica
Elaine
Elizabeth
Eliza
Elora
Elissa
Eliana
I have no problems with those names.My all-time favorite boys name is Elliott (has been for around 30 years), I adore Ella since it was the full given name of my late aunt, Eloise has been a strong favorite for years, Eleanor too.A lot of 'El-' nicknames are among my favorites, for those above, like Ellie for Eleanor or Ellinor. Elsie, Elise, Elisa, Eliza for Elisabeth and/or Elizabeth.I know that the 'El-' may give the name a hard sound, or look 'edged', but that's why I like names with those looks and sounds.
I like some of them and dislike others.Love/Like:
Elaine
Eleanor

Elise / Elyse
