My name is Eli (short for Elijah) and one of my Caribbean coworkers calls me Elin. I have no qualms with the fact that it's a girls' name since it is not common enough to have a known or obvious gender. Lol. I just find it funny and yes, it's a neat name. I don't see it as male or female, personally. It's just short, impactful and unique.I say "EE-LIN", not Ay-lin.
