Help[Opinions] Re: Ellen
in reply to a message by Billina
After ignoring it for most of my life, I'm starting to really like it. Ellen is pretty in a quiet way, softer than Helen, sturdier than Elinor...it's very appealing. I'd like very much to see it revived.
Ellen is like Susan, Patricia, Deborah, and other mid-century names. I only ever run into it on women who are decades older than I am and, on them, it feels boring and easy to ignore. Meeting a little 21st-century girl named Ellen, on the other hand, would delight me. I think, on her, it would feel fresh and unpretentious.

Ellen reminds me of Ellen Degeneras. i'm not a huge fan. Helen reminds me of the landlady married to Stanley Roper on the 1980's tv show Three's Company. and finally Elinor or Lenore is the name of a woman i know who is married to a man named Herbert. i like the name Ella better.
