The Brilliant Book of Baby Names: What’s best, what’s hot and what’s not. Linda RosenkrantzЧитать онлайн книгу.
Eliza Doolittle charm and spunk, and offer it as one of our top recommendations. Aliza, Alizah, Eliz, Elizah, Elizaida, Elizalina, Elise, Elisea, Elyza, Elyzza, Liza.
ELIZABELLA. Combination of ELIZA and BELLA. The megapopularity of Isabella may give this awkward hybrid a boost. Elizabel, Elizabell, Elizabelle.
ELIZABETH. Hebrew, ’pledged to God’. While Elizabeth, one of the premiere classic girls’ names, is still in the Top 50, there are actually fewer babies getting the name these days. It has so much going for it—rich history, broad appeal and timeless style—that no matter how many little Lizzies, Elizas and Beths are out there, you can still make it your own. Alizabeth, Bess, Bessi, Bessie, Bessy, Bet, Beth, Betsey, Betsi, Betsie, Betsy, Bett, Bette, Bettey, Bettie, Betty, Buffy, Elisabeth, Elisabith, Elisheba, Elisheva, Elizabee, Ellie, Ellisa, Ellsi, Ellspet, Ellyse, Ellyssa, Ellyza, Elsee, Elsy, Elysabeth, Elyse, Elyssa, Elyza, Elyzza, Leesa, Leeza, Libbi, Libby, Lilabet, Lilibet, Lilibeth, Lisabet, Lisabeth, Lisanne, Lisbeth, Liz, Lizabeth, Lizanne, Lizbet, Lizbeth, Lizzi, Lizzie, Lizzy, Lysa, Lyssie, Lyza, Lyzanne, Lyzbet, Lyzbeth, Lyzbette, Lyzette.
ELKE. (el-kee) Dutch, diminutive of ADELHEID. Creates a seemingly contradictory image: a German sex kitten—though there was one, Elke Sommer, in the 1960s. Elka, Elki, Ellke, Ilka, Ilki.
ELLA. German, ’all, completely’; English, ’fairy maiden’. Staying strong in the Top 20 and one of the fastest rising names among the glitterati – including the John Travoltas, the Warren Beattys, and Eric Clapton – riding on the coat-tails of both the Isabella and Emma bandwagons. Ella Fitzgerald adds jazzy edge. Alia, Ela, Elladine, Ellah, Ellamae, Elletta, Ellette, Elley, Elli, Ellia, Ellie, Ellina, Elly.
ELLAMAE. Combination of ELLA and MAE. Proof that one plus one sometimes equals zero. Ellamay.
ELLE. French, ’she’. Add the charming heroine of the film Clueless to a supermodel (Elle Macpherson) and to another charming movie heroine in the Legally Blonde films, and you have one hit name.
ELLEN. English variation of HELEN. Fading fast, in favour of Ella, Eleanor, Ellie – a Top 10 favourite—Elle and even Elena. Elan, Elea, Elen, Elena, Elene, Elenee, Eleni, Elenita, Eleny, Elenyi, Elin, Elina, Elinda, Ellan, Ellena, Ellene, Ellie, Ellin, Ellon, Elly, Ellyn, Ellynn, Ellynne, Elon, Elyn.
ELLERY. English, ’island with elder trees’. In the past few years this formerly male-only name has become a hot girls’ name. Eleree, Eleri, Elerie, Elery, Elleree, Elleri, Ellerie, Ellerie.
