Daphne - Highly connected with the Scooby Doo character in the U.S. but it could definitely rise above that. It's a great Greek alternative to the popular
Chloe and
Zoe but I like it better than
Phoebe. :) I don't think it'll be on the top 100 anytime terribly soon but you never know. :-/
I ADORE the name
Elsa. I don't see it soaring to the top of the charts soon, either, but you never know -- parents could see it as an alternative to
Ella (or even
Emma and
Isabelle /
Isabella). I personally "discovered" it about 6 months ago and it's soared to the top of my personal favorites list recently. :b My grandmother's name was
Elsie, and I'd toyed with the idea of using
Elspeth as a mn to honor her, but since I met a lovely, sweet woman named
Elsa, it's really made me notice the name and I prefer it to
Elspeth now. :) I think it would make a lovely fn to honor my gm, and
Elsie as a possible nn, too.
BTW,
Elsa Daphne is a lovely combo. :)
