Hey, youngins....

How many of you know who Ellie May is? Does the name ring a bell for you? Just wondering if people will connect her name with it. ha ha

We've picked out Eleanor Mae, but Dh also thinks people may tease her (IF it's a girl. lol)

As in the Beverly Hillbillies? If so, I wouldn't worry too much about a girl getting teased with that name. I actually think it's an adorable name, and the character was cute too. Not as bad as like Kim Kardashian or a name like that. haha

I think thats a great name!

I sounds vaguely familiar but nothing really rings a bell. It's a cute name. Sounds southern to me.

Thanks! I like it a lot too, I'm just worried about the connection between Beverly Hillbillies and that... dont want a name people will tease it over, ya know?

My grandma's name was Eleanor Rose and some people called her Ellie May. I never knew why but I liked it haha.

I did know what it was but I don't automatically connect the name with that.

Screw the association - like kids her age will know who it is anyway! Beautiful name, stick with it.

Then I guess it would work with Olivia Jo, huh? ah ha ha ha ha. DH calls her name redneck as well.

LOVE Eleanor! Not mae.

Ellie Mae is super hillbilly. Especially when there are so many more dignified yet adorable NN for Eleanor.

Ella and Nora for example.

I do know who it is and I do like the name... I actually almost named Dean *Serena* because I liked bewitched, and I actually liked her sister Serena, better than Samantha

DH hates both of them. ha ha. I LOVE LOVE LOVE Nora, but he says no. MY name is Ellie, short for something completely different (Not an "E" name), and the thinks it's adorable that she'll be an Ellie too. lol

Ha ha... that's awesome! I loved that show as a kid!

by the time she's old enough for kids to tease her, the beverly hillbillies will be long gone! The kids her age will probably never hear of it unless their parents or grandparents play it for them lol...makes me feel old

Only reason I do is because that was the first thing my dad joked about when I told him DDs name. He's always gotta be an ass somehow.

I've met ONE person in three years who's ever made the same comment, no young people have any clue who Ellie May is.
