Honest Thoughts on Eloide

[jamiejamiemomamie]

How is Eloide pronounced? I'm not seeing the "Melody without the M" pronunciation from the spelling Eloide.

I have to go with Eloise too! I have a good friend with a daughter named Eloise and I have always love that name. I don't dislike Eloide, but I think it might be a tough name to carry for a little girl. Probably better as an adult!

Hello, original poster - I think you have your answer in all of the replying posts -

People do not even realize that you're asking about the name ELOIDE, not Elodie. You can already see what a lifetime of problems this would be for a person, not a single person actually see's the name Eloide!

No, I don't have my answer because I think everyone got it was a typo or didn't notice. But either way people are answering to the name that I wanted them to, I am apparently just dyslexic to typing the name Elodie.

ELOIDE is the name I was trying to ask about (sorry, can't go back and edit title posts ever! )

So, it is Elodie you're inquiring about then? Anyway, if so... honestly, my thoughts have always been "it looks like Melody without the M" although that's not a bad thing. It's a good way to get to the nickname Elle or Ellie if you wanted.

I had this same problem 3 years ago! I was torn between Eloise and Elodie but I couldn't get my husband to like Eloise (I still love it so much!) but I have a spunky 3 year old named Elodie Jayne. She fits her name indeed! A lot of people comment only good things about her name. We thought we would call her Ellie/Elly but have yet to do that. She was called peanut for a long time and now just Elodie or Elodie Jayne. But back to your daughter to be I think Emily is too popular. Elizabeth is beautiful with lots of nicknames and I like the other name Elowen. So I say Eloise, Elodie or Elowen are all close and beautiful names!

I personally love Elodie - I don't think it's trendy at all. I think it's classy and beautiful with a lovely history behind it.

cool. That is a great alternative to Eloise. You could also use Elowen or Elise.
