    At a loss about child names

    My daughter is getting her name changed in January. She's 2 1/2. Her birth father is not involved but unfortuently picked her middle names and gave her his last. So I am giving her mine.

    Her first name is Ella, based on my love of elves and fae. I want her name to have roots that way or to the celts. Perhaps some help with middle names?

    I like names, and I think you can be pretty creative with middle names. My daughter's middle name is Aurora, after Sleeping Beauty because I'm a dork.

    There's lots of good options for you, I'd just stay away from something ending in an A or it will sound weird.

    So what sort of a elves/fae do you like? Mythological or fictional? Tolkien? There's tons of names, depending on the specifics.

      I'm pretty much a fan of every type, mythical, fictional ect. I just have this love of them haha. I'd think more based on myths and legends.

        There's tons of lists online.


        I like Etain. Ella Etain sounds nice.

        Or maybe just simply Ella Fay. You can spell it Fae too. I'm not huge on weird spelling, but that's a real word.

            I changed my name a few years back in my 20s. I'd never had a middle name and so I gave myself one, and I did it by going through lists of Celtic and Pictish names on the internet. Might be worth a try?

                Thank you lovelies. I have been thinking about Ella Fae since I was pregnant but was unsure if it was appropriate lol. I don't wanna like offend a Fay.

                  It's clearly being offered to your child as a compliment to who they are. I don't see how anyone, human or otherwise, would be offended by that.
